Akane Iijima jumped out to an early lead in the final round of the Kosaido Ladies Golf Cup, but Mayumi Nakajima made up 4 shots over the first 4 holes on the back and both players were tied at -12 after matching birdies on the par-3 15th. The very next hole decided the tournament, as Iijima made her 5th birdie of the day and Nakajima her 1st bogey. Both leaders ended up with strong 68s and didn't let anyone else get into contention, but in the end Iijima protected her 2-shot lead and earned her 4th career win on the JLPGA.
