The 2026 Fortinet Founders Cup final leaderboard is headed by winner Hyo Joo Kim, who topped the LPGA Tour leaderboard this week with a win at Sharon Heights Golf and Country Club in Menlo Park, California.

Kim won this event for her second win in as many seasons, taking this event by a single shot over a game Nelly Korda on 16-under 272.

Korda got to within a shot relatively early in the final round, but she could never close to take the lead and win. She finishes runner-up after winning her first event of the year back in Orlando at the Tournament of Champions.

Sei Young Kim and Jin Hee Im finished in a share of third place on 11-under total.

Kim won the $450,000 winner's share of the $3,000,000 purse.

Fortinet Founders Cup recap notes

Kim picks up the win in the fourth LPGA Tour event of the season, getting in the winner's circle once again.

By winning the event, Kim won 500 points in the Race to the CME Globe, with the top 60 players in points after The Annika in November getting into the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship.

This week, there was a 36-hole cut in this event, with 65 of 144 players finishing the tournament.

The 2026 LPGA Tour schedule continues next week with the 2026 Ford Championship in Arizona.
