Lilia Vu picked up her second major win of the 2023 season, lifting up the trophy at the 2023 AIG Women's Open. Earlier this year she won the Chevron Championship. At the AIG Women's Open, Vu held off home favorite Charley Hull to win the last major of the year with a score of 14 under par.

The total prize purse for the AIG Women's Open was a record-setting $9 million, the third-largest prize purse for women's tournaments this year. Of that, Lilia Vu walked away with $1.35 million.

Lila Vu and Charley Hull went into the final round of the Open in joint lead. Vu took an early charge after sinking in a birdie on the second hole of the course. She extended her lead to five strokes as the last pair started the back nine.

Hull's impressive bunker shot eagle, however, meant that Lilia Vu's lead was cut down to three strokes. Yet, maintaining composure under pressure, Vu continued her impressive play, finishing six strokes ahead of Charley Hull.

The home favorite ended up taking second place with a score of 8 under par, while Jiyai Shin took sole third place with a score of 7 under par.
