Jasmine Suwannapura shot a final-round 61 to take the lead in the 2024 Walmart NW Arkansas Championship. But Lucy Li had an even more impressive round, carding three eagles, seven birdies, and two bogeys for a 60.

With her performance, Li set a new 18-hole record at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship, climbed 24 spots to the top of the leaderboard, and forced the playoff.

The first playoff hole was an intense affair with both competitors reaching the green with 10-foot putts for eagle. However, both missed by a few inches and the hole ended in a tie.

On the second hole, Suwannapura birdied her opponent's par to win the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship and claim her third LPGA Tour title.
