The 20-year-old Wie finished the victory in style, hitting a greenside bunker shot to 6 inches on the 18th hole before tapping in for a birdie. She raised her arms, and after pulling the ball out of the hole, she looked to the sky and let out a sigh of relief.

"For sure, it's definitely off my back," Wie said. "I think that hopefully, life will be a lot better, but I still have a lot of work to do."

Wie finished at 13-under 275 after starting the day tied for the lead with Cristie Kerr at 10 under. Kerr shot a 72 and finished three back, tied with Morgan Pressel (67) and Jiyai Shin (71).
