Yamashita closed with a four-under 68, making five birdies and one bogey. Yan Liu also shot 68 in the final round and finished on 268, 20 under par, so she did not close the gap on the last day.

Yamashita receives $450,000 from the $3 million prize fund, according to Bernama. Japanese coverage highlights her second consecutive victory in the event. The result concerns the Malaysian LPGA tournament, not the overall season standings.
