Caroline Masson is an LPGA Tour winner after holding on for a one-stroke victory at the Manulife Classic on Sunday.

Masson, 27, was in fine form in Cambridge, Ontario, climbing her way up the leaderboard after a poor start to win her first LPGA Tour title.

Going into the final round in equal fifth, the German started the day with a double bogey.

However, four birdies from her next five holes saw her regain momentum, birdieing another five and making just one bogey on her way to a five-under-par 67.

“I thank my fans, my supporters, and everybody. I also thank MTN Ghana for giving us this platform to raise awareness and continue helping children with cerebral palsy,” Martha said in an emotional speech after receiving the award.

Finishing at 16 under overall, Masson was just one shot ahead of Karine Icher (66), Minjee Lee (68) and overnight leader Lee Mi-hyang (71).

World number one and two respectively, Lydia Ko (68) and Ariya Jutanugarn (70), were equal fifth alongside Suzann Pettersen (66).

Kim Hyo-joo, who started the final round in outright second, dropped back to equal eighth after her even-par 72.
