That tied the two countries at 10-under-par 566.
This marked the second instance when the tiebreaker system was used. In 2002, Australia beat Thailand using the first criteria.
Colombia moved up eight places on Saturday with an eight-under 136, the lowest final-round team total in championship history. They finished third at nine- under-par 567.
Chonburi, Thailand (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hee-Won Han posted her third consecutive round in the 60s on Sunday to run away with the Honda LPGA Thailand, her sixth career victory and second of the season. Han shot a five-under 67 in the final round, completing the first-ever LPGA event in Thailand at 14-under-par 202 for a five-shot victory over Diana D'Alessio.
It was a surprisingly commanding win for Han, who trailed second-round leader Nicole Castrale by two shots overnight. The first eight holes on Sunday decided everything, with Han collecting five birdies during that stretch while Castrale stumbled to three bogeys.
The trio ended one shot behind D'Alessio, who had a two-under 70 to take solo second place at nine-under-par 207. D'Alessio got off to a poor start, but had three birdies on her back nine.
Han, who won the LPGA Corning Classic in May, was the only player to shoot three sub-70 rounds this weekend at Amata Spring Country Club.
On the back nine, Han got as low as 15-under after birdies at the 11th and 14th. Cruising at that point, she then finished her round bogey-birdie-bogey.
"I kept trying to make birdies on the back nine," said Han. "I got bogeys on 16 and 18, but I played pretty comfortable when I knew I was up by five or six shots."

Kansas City, MO - Kansas City has not officially named Matt Cassel its starting quarterback, but there can be no doubt now.
NFL Betting
After praising his leadership and work ethic through spring workouts, the Chiefs announced Tuesday they had signed the 27-year-old Cassel to a multiyear contract. Terms were not disclosed, but he will almost certainly be one of the highest-paid members of the team.
"We are excited to be able to reach a long-term agreement for Matt Cassel to be a Kansas City Chief for many years to come," owner and board chairman Clark Hunt said in a statement. "His proven leadership on and off the field will be a tremendous asset to the organization."
Patriots made him their franchise player, meaning his salary for this season will be about $15 million.
New head coach Todd Haley, taking over for Herm Edwards after a 2-14 season, refused to name a starter at any position during offseason workouts. But it was obvious to everyone the team belonged to Cassel.
"I go out there each and every day with that focus that I'm the starter," Cassel said during a June minicamp. "Competition brings out the best in everybody."
The signing will come as welcome news to Cassel's new coaches and teammates. Amiable and hardworking, online football betting he appeared to win over everyone at minicamp.
"I think he's got some unique leadership qualities. I think his teammates like him and have respect for him. I think he's doing a pretty good job on the field, too," Haley said last month. "He's doing everything that I'm asking him, that our coaches are asking him to do. I don't have one single complaint how he's carrying himself."
After one workout, wide receiver Devard Darling declared Cassel "a breath of fresh air."
"He has a lot of swagger, a lot of confidence. It's good for us," said Darling. "We trust in him that he's going to go out there and lead us all the way."
nse to accommodate his specific abilities.
Trapped on the bench behind Heisman winners Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart at USC and then unable to unseat Super Bowl MVP Brady at New England, Cassel seemed destined to be a backup all his life. As Brady was helped off the field last September, Cassel seized the opportunity he'd been waiting for since high school.
In his only sustained action since his teens, he hit 349 of 555 passes for 3,949 yards at New England. He had 23 touchdown passes and 13 interceptions as the Patriots, who had gone unbeaten through the regular season the year before, finished 11-5 and out of the playoffs.
Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli, who had been Bill Belichick's assistant in New England, engineered the trade after the Patriots became convinced that Brady would recover fully from his knee operation.
"Since Matt arrived in Kansas City, he has embraced the team and the community," Pioli said. "His work ethic, his ability and competitive presence is what we expect from our players."
