Miyu Yamashita successfully defends her title at the LPGA Tour’s Maybank Championship, beating China’s Yan Liu by two strokes. The 2025 Women’s British Open winner finishes with a 72-hole total of 22-under 266 after a final round 68 at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club. This marks her fifth career title and second LPGA Tour win this season. Yan Liu finishes at 18-under 268, while Pauline Roussin-Bouchard and amateur Marisa Tojai tie for third. Next week, the LPGA’s late-season Asian swing concludes with the Toto Japan Classic near Tokyo.
