Jiyai Shin of South Korea wins Evian Masters by 1 stroke ahead of Pressel, Choi, Thompson

EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France – Jiyai Shin of South Korea has birdied the 18th hole to win the Evian Masters, shooting a 5-under 67 to finish at 14 under and one stroke ahead of Morgan Pressel, Na Yeon Choi and Alexis Thompson.

Shin's fifth birdie in the final round took her one stroke clear of overnight leader Pressel, whose putt to force a playoff then rolled agonizingly close to the hole.

Pressel, who started the final round two strokes clear, walked over and hugged Shin after missing her putt.
