Kim's win ended a 1,001-day wait for a title.

His round featured three birdies on both the front and back nines, including a crucial birdie on the 16th hole that extended his lead.

Min Woo Lee finished second after a strong performance. He missed a birdie attempt on the 17th hole, which effectively sealed Kim's victory.

Lee expressed satisfaction with his week. "I'm just happy with the week and obviously a win would have been nice.
