Vu broke the tie with Hull with a birdie on the second hole and never looked back, as Hull fell behind with back-to-back bogeys on the next two holes. Vu was blemish-free on the front nine, recording another birdie on the ninth and making par on every other hole.

The UCLA alum opened the back nine with two birdies in her first three holes. Her lone misstep came with a bogey on the 15th, but she bounced back with another birdie on the next hole to maintain her dominant lead. She closed the show with another birdie on the 18th hole to cap her stellar victory.

Vu is now the first female player to win two majors in a single year since Jin Young Ko in 2019, and the first American woman to accomplish the feat since Juli Inkster in 1999, per the Associated Press.

The next tournament on the LPGA schedule is the ISPS Handa World Invitational, which will begin on Thursday, Aug. 17 in Antrim, Northern Ireland.
