Brooke Henderson survived a roller-coaster final round and birdied the last hole to win the Amundi Evian Championship by one shot from Sophia Schubert at Evian Resort Golf Club in France.

The 24-year-old Canadian entered the final round with a two-shot lead but struggled out of the gates, dropping a shot at her first hole and then making a four-putt double bogey on the sixth, to lose her outright lead. However, after sinking a birdie putt on the seventh hole and then making the turn in two-over-par, Henderson fought hard on the back nine to grind out the win and earn the first prize cheque, worth $1 million.

Watch the highlights of her triumph below:
