TROON, Scotland — Jenny Shin won the Women's Scottish Open on Sunday, capturing her first LPGA Tour title in more than a decade after entering the final round holding a five-shot lead at Royal Troon.

Shin, 33, had not won on the LPGA Tour since 2016. Her play at Troon over four rounds marked a return to the form that once made her a consistent contender, with steady scoring across the demanding links layout.

The South Korean managed the blustery conditions on Scotland's Ayrshire coast, where wind and firm fairways tested the entire field. Her five-shot lead provided a comfortable cushion, though links golf offered no guarantees over the closing holes.

The victory carries added significance ahead of the AIG Women's Open, the year's final major championship, which follows the Scottish Open on the tournament calendar. A confidence-boosting win positions Shin as a player to watch heading into that championship.

The Women's Scottish Open, co-sanctioned by the LPGA and Ladies European Tour, has become a key preparation event for players adapting to links conditions before the major.
