The 2022 Cognizant Founders Cup final leaderboard is headed by winner Minjee Lee, who earned her seventh-career LPGA Tour win with a victory at Upper Montclair Country Club in Clifton, N.J.
Lee shot 2-under 70 in the final round, which was good enough for a two-shot win over Lexi Thompson on 19-under 269. Lee played a power game all week, similar to the other names atop the leaderboard, but she was clutch from mid-range putting more often than her challengers.
Angel Yin and Madelene Sagstrom finished in a tie for third place on 16-under total.
Lee won the $450,000 winner's share of the $3,000,000 purse.
