Hannah Green Secures HSBC Women’s World Championship Title with Husband as Caddie
Singapore – Australia’s Hannah Green claimed her seventh LPGA Tour victory and a second HSBC Women’s World Championship title at Sentosa Golf Club on Sunday, March 1, 2026. The win was made even more special with her husband, Jarryd Felton, on the bag as her caddie.
A Team Effort Leads to Victory
Green finished with a winning total of 14-under-par 274, securing the championship by one stroke. The victory was particularly meaningful as it came with a unique dynamic – her husband, too a professional golfer, serving as her caddie.
“It was absolutely a team effort over the last two weeks, and it’s very special to share my seventh win, which is also my favourite number, with him,”
Hannah Green
The unusual arrangement came about given that Green’s regular caddie is currently applying for a green card and was unable to leave the United States. Felton had previously caddied for her on two other occasions this year.
Strong Start and Consistent Performance
Green began the final day tied for the lead with Minjee Lee, another prominent Australian golfer. She quickly established control with a birdie on the first hole, followed by an impressive eagle on the par-five eighth. She finished the front nine at 33 and continued her strong performance with further birdies on the 11th and 13th holes.
Final Results and Notable Performances
The final leaderboard saw Auston Kim finish in second place at 13-under, even as several other players contended for the title. Notable finishes included:
- Perrine Bouchard (France) -11
- Angela Yin (US) -11
- Minjee Lee (Australia) -11
- Ha Na Ryu (Korea) -10
England’s Meghan MacLaren finished fourth on 10 under, and Scotland’s Kelsey MacDonald finished in a tie for 41st.
“I was feeling nervous and told Jarryd a couple of times that I wasn’t comfortable. He reminded me to seize a deep breath, have a snack or even sip some water,”

Looking Ahead
This victory marks Green’s seventh LPGA Tour win and solidifies her position as a leading force in women’s golf. The unique circumstances surrounding her caddie situation add a heartwarming layer to her accomplishment.
