Sweden's Helen Alfredsson claimed a record third title at the Evian Masters after a three-way sudden-death play-off in France.
Alfredsson, who won the inaugural title in 1994 before her second victory four years later, had birdied the final two holes for a final-round 67 to join Brazil's Angela Park and South Korean rookie, Na-Yeon Choi, in the play-off on 15 under par.
Extra time was over the par-five 18th and Alfredsson clinched the Ј240,000 title at the third time of asking when she hit the green in two and two-putted for a birdie four at the third extra hole.
Park, who had led going into the final round and closed with a 71, went out when she could only make par at the first extra hole, and 21-year-old Choi missed a six-foot birdie putt that would have extended the contest.
"I'm really getting too old for this," said the 43-year-old, who has now won 19 tournaments worldwide in 19 years as a professional.
It was her 11th win in Europe, but her first since the 2001 WPGA Championship of Europe in Wales.
"I'm thrilled to win again.
"This tournament has always had a special place in my heart ever since I won the first one.
"It is the most beautiful place and I feel I have been so lucky to be invited back every year. It's just great to be a three-time champion."
Alfredsson has been hit by a string of injuries over the years, and she cut back on her tournament play last season when she was the European Solheim Cup captain.
But she showed great form last month with a second place in the US Women's Open.
World number one Lorena Ochoa - who defends the Ricoh Women's British Open at Sunningdale this week - closed with a 68 and was fifth on 12 under par, while two-time winner Annika Sorenstam, in her final Evian Masters before retirement, also shot 68 for seven under.
"It is sad to know I won't be back (playing here again)," admitted Sorenstam.
"But I have good memories and I'm looking forward to new challenges in the future."
Wales' Becky Brewerton had a fine, six-birdie 68 in the final round to move up into a tie for 24th place on five under par.
However, Laura Davies, a two-time winner, had a horror final day 80 and was last of the 70 qualifiers on 13 over par.
