Playing the final round Sunday (Korea time) at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston, Texas, Yoon shot a 4-under 68 with seven birdies and three bogeys.
She finished at 12-under 276, sharing fourth place with Liu Yan of China, and earned $429,922 (about 635 million won).
Yoon, who debuted on the LPGA Tour last year, struggled early, posting just one top-10 finish in 26 starts.
This season, she has moved up the leaderboard. She tied for sixth at last month’s Ford Championship, her best finish since joining the tour, then placed fourth at the JM Eagle LA Championship that ended on April 20. With another fourth-place finish at the Chevron Championship, she has posted top-five results in consecutive weeks.
It was also her best finish in a major. Her previous best was a tie for 14th at last year’s U.S. Women’s Open.
Korda won at 18-under 270, beating Yin Ruoning of China and Thailand’s Patty Tavatanakit, who tied for second at 13-under 275, by five shots. She earned $1.35 million (2 billion won) in prize money.
It was Korda’s 17th career LPGA win, her second of the season and her third major title. She also won this event in 2024.
World No. 3 Kim Hyo-joo finished sixth at 7-under 281.
Yoo Hae-ran and Hwang Yoo-min tied for 12th at 4-under 284. Choi Hye-jin and Lim Jin-hee tied for 21st at 3-under 285, and Lee So-mi tied for 34th at 1-under 287.
Defending champion Mao Saigo of Japan tied for 59th at 4-over 292.
