Team Australia claimed the International Crown 2025 after beating Team USA in the finals. The Australian team clinched the title after Hannah Green and Minjee Lee won their singles matches over Yealimi Noh and Angel Yin, respectively.
On Sunday, October 26, Australia, USA, Japan, and Team World played the semifinals in the morning. While Australia made it to the finals after posting a win over Team World, the USA beat Japan to face the Aussies.
In the first singles match of the finals, Yin faced Lee, and the contest was tight between the two. Yin took the lead with a birdie on the fourth, but Lee responded with one on the next. The Australian star went 1-up on the ninth hole, only for Yin to answer back with a birdie. Both traded leads before Lee finally sealed it by winning the 16th and 17th holes.
The second singles match was more one-sided, as Green hardly gave Vu a chance to dominate. She took the lead on the fourth hole, and though the margin changed, it never returned to a tie. Eventually, Green finished the job with a birdie on the 17th hole.
The foursome match between Stephanie Kyriacou and Grace Kim against Lilia Vu and Lauren Coughlin ended in a tie but it hardly mattered with the Aussies already 2-up in the overall score.
In the third-place match, Charley Hull and Lydia Ko won their singles matches to secure a podium finish for Team World. However, Mao Saigo and Miyu Yamashita gave Japan some consolation by winning the foursome match.
The win helped Team Australia earn $500,000 with each player receiving $125,000. Runner-up USA bagged $303,600 and each player got $75,900, while Team World took home $257,600 ($64,400 each).
