Minjee Lee led the way as Australia stunned the United States in the final to win the LPGA Tour’s International Crown for the first time on Sunday in South Korea.

The Australians clinched victory in the biennial team golf trophy when world number three Lee beat Angel Yin and Hannah Green downed Yealimi Noh in their singles matches, both 2 and 1.

Steph Kyriacou and Grace Kim tied their foursomes match with Lilia Vu and Lauren Coughlin but by that time the result was already in the bag.

Lee, a three-time major winner, said the team nature of the victory made it even more special.

“I’m so happy that I could do it with these girls, it was just a lot of fun this whole week,” she said.

“Playing match play is something different and we don’t get to do it too often.”
