Miyu Yamashita of Japan captured her first major title Sunday when she withstood a charge by Charley Hull by not making a bogey until the outcome of the AIG Women’s Open was no longer in doubt. She closed with a 2-under 70 for a two-shot victory.

It was a rough 24th birthday for the Japanese rookie, who saw her lead shrink to one after she hit only seven fairways and took 34 putts.
