Sweden’s Linn Grant fired a five-under par 65 on Sunday to win the LPGA Annika at Pelican title by three strokes over American Jennifer Kupcho.

Grant finished 72 holes at the Belleair, Florida, resort on 19-under 261 to become the first Swede to win the event named for Swedish LPGA legend Annika Sorenstam.

Grant, 26, captured her only prior LPGA title in 2023 at Toledo but has taken six triumphs on the Ladies European Tour.
