Arizona State alum Linn Grant secured her second LPGA victory with a composed performance at The ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge at Pelican, closing with a five-under 65 for a three-shot win over Jennifer Kupcho at Pelican Golf Club in Belleair, Florida.

Grant reached nineteen under and held control throughout the final round. She played fifty-two straight bogey-free holes before a harmless bogey on the final hole. This is her second trophy presented by Annika Sorenstam, following her win at the Scandinavian Mixed in Sweden.

Kupcho briefly tied the lead with a birdie on the first hole, but Grant responded immediately and pulled away with key birdies early in the round. Kupcho also shot 65 to finish second, while Gaby Lopez recorded 65 to finish third.

Brooke Matthews produced a standout stretch with a hole-in-one at the twelfth and an eagle two holes later, moving her into the top sixty of the Race to the CME Globe and into the CME Group Tour Championship. Nataliya Guseva and Lucy Li also advanced with strong finishes.

Grant’s win extends her streak of earning at least one professional title every year since 2020. Nelly Korda, the defending champion, closed with 69 to tie for fifteenth.
