The LPGA released a joint statement with the Japan LPGA, who co-sanctions the event, that due to the postponement, the tournament will be reduced to 54 holes.
Despite never having won on the LPGA before and this being her first time playing the Toto Japan Classic, Dryburgh was unexpectedly comfortable in the moment.
It was a tournament that Japan’s Nasa Hataoka wanted to win more than others, but to do so required a timely assist, and Australia’s Minjee Lee provided her one.
China’s Shanshan Feng won the Toto Japan Classic for the second year in a row, marking the first time in the 2017 season that an LPGA player has defended a title.
