DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Michelle Wie's late charge has fallen short at the Dubai Ladies Masters and In-Kyung Kim of South Korea has claimed a three-shot victory at the season-ending tournament for her first European Tour title.
Wie shot a 7-under 65 on Saturday, but the 13th-ranked Kim had a 4-under 68 to finish at 18-under 270. Maria Hjorth of Sweden was third at 274 after a 68.
Wie could have made Kim sweat on No. 18, but her attempt to reach the green in two failed when her ball rolled back into a water hazard.
