The 2023 Maybank Championship ended with Celine Boutier lifting the trophy after an exhilirating nine-hole sudden death playoff against Atthaya Thitikul. The overall prize purse was $3 million, which was up for grabs for the golfers who finished at the top of the leaderboard.

While Boutier finished as the winner of the Maybank Championship, Nelly Korda finished tied for sixth place, alongside Gemma Dryburgh and Brooke M. Henderson. She finished with an overall score of 17 under, after a gradual improvement through every round. At the end of the day, Korda took home an impressive $87,097.

Korda is yet to win a tournament in the 2023 LPGA Season, and the Maybank Championship was a lost chance for her to do so. She will now compete at the CME Group Tour Championship. If she fails to win, it will be her first winless season since her rookie year.

Lydia Ko, on the other hand, finished 11th at the Maybank Championship. She finished with a score of 14 under par, leading to her third-best finish of the year. She finished tied for 11th, alongside Nasa Hataoka. Ko took home $54,591 from the total prize purse.
