Ko won the silver medal at Rio 2016 before picking up bronze in Tok♎yo three years ago, but her victory in Paris also pushed her career total to 27 points required for a place in the LPGA Hall of Fame.
She was the joint leader going into the final day and built a five-shot lea♍d on the back nine to put herself out of reach as her competitors dropped away, though she set up a nervy finish as she carded a one-under 71.
Germany's Esther Henseleit almost caught 🦩her as she hit a six-under 66 to shoot up the lea🧜derboard to finish on eight under, coming out of nowhere to clinch the silver medal.
Xiyu Lin was almost forced into aꦿ play-off🀅 for bronze, but she birdied the final hole for a 69 to finish on seven under, one stroke ahead of fourth place.
Swit🅘zerland's Morgane Metraux had been Ko's co-leader at the start of the day, but it was a day to forget as her game collapsed, and she finished the event in 18th.
Nelly Korda and Rose Zhang also struggled to maintain their momentum🥃 on Saturday, as Ko surged out of their sights on the leaderboard.
