SHIMA, Japan — Shin Ji-yai won the Mizuno Classic for her second LPGA Tour title and ninth international victory of the year, shooting a 5-under 67 on Sunday to easily hold off Mayu Hattori at Kinetsu Kashikojima.

The Women's British Open winner and the first player to sweep the Korea LPGA Tour's three majors in a season, Shin finished at 15-under 201 for her second victory of the year in Japan. The 20-year-old South Korean star earned $210,000.

"Yesterday and today I was really good with my iron shots," Shin said. "Almost the best this year. It feels like I can make everything."

Hattori, the Japanese player coming off a victory last week in the Japan LPGA's IDC Otsuka Ladies, closed with a 67 to finish second, six strokes back in the event sanctioned by the LPGA Tour and JLPGA. Lim Eun-a (70) was third at 8 under, and Chung Il-mi (69), Wei Yun-jye (70) and Lee Jee-young (72) followed at 7 under.

Shin played the front nine in 4 under — birdieing Nos. 2 and 3 and holing an eagle chip on the par-5 seventh — to move four strokes ahead of Hattori and Lee. Lee birdied the 10th to cut Shin's lead to three, but had a double bogey on the par-3 11th.

"I was very nervous on the first tee," Shin said. "But I made birdies on the second and third holes and got more comfortable and confident."

Shin birdied the par-5 13th and had a six-stroke lead with four to play. She three-putted for a bogey on the par-4 15th, only her second bogey on the week and first in 47 holes, then birdied the par-5 16th and closed with two pars.

Hattori had a double bogey on the par-4 12th.

"It was a tough day," Hattori said. "But this was a good experience for me. There were a lot of good players here and it's good to play against them."
