Evian Championship

Celine Boutier won her first major with an impressive six-shot victory at the Evian. Boutier is the first Frenchwoman to take home the Evian title and the third Frenchwoman to win a major.

Starting Sunday with a solid three-shot lead, Boutier extended her lead early by making three birdies in the first five holes. After her early birdies, she cruised the rest of the way on Sunday, consistently hitting greens and keeping her distance from the rest of the field.

Boutierโ€™s win is her fourth on the LPGA tour to go along with four victories on the Ladies European Tour in her career. She will surely make another strong addition to the European Solheim Cup team later this year.

Canada's Brooke Henderson finished second, earning herself a cool $586,000. Henderson, the defending champion, had a strong showing but couldn't catch up to the indomitable Boutier.

The group tied for third included A Lim Kim, Nasa Hataoka, Yuka Saso, Celine Borge, and Gaby Lopez, all making a significant impact on the leaderboard but none getting close enough to catch Boutier. A special mention to the Norwegian Borge, who shot a final round 68 and earned her best finish in a major.

Atthaya Thitikul shot a final round 65, the low round of the day, to jump inside the top 10.

Nelly Korda and Rose Zhang also made it into the top ten finishing at five under for the week.

PGA Tour - 3M Open

Lee Hodges stole the show at the 3M Open, claiming his first PGA Tour victory. The American's commanding performance, which included two eagles in the final round, saw him set a new tournament record of 24 under par. Hodges went wire-to-wire after opening with an 8-under 63 on Thursday and never looked back.

While Hodges' victory was a standout performance, it wasn't the only drama on display at TPC Twin Cities. Aggressive play on the final hole by JT Poston cost him $260,000 after he made a triple bogey, pulling him back to tie for second with Kevin Streelman and Martin Laird at 17 under.

Beau Hossler matched the course record with a final round 62, catapulting him into a tie for 13th place.
