Lottie Woad won the Women’s Scottish Open for the first time in her professional career with a final-round score of 68 to claim her second tour victory.
The 21-year-old held her composure to keep the chasing pack at bay as she entered the final round with a two-shot lead over South Korea’s Sei Young Kim.
Woad shot 21-under for the tournament, three shots clear of Hyo Joo Kim’s closest challenger, with just her third birdie and one bogey, which is her third in 72 holes around Dundonald Links.
The former world number one amateur finished in style with a birdie after taking a wedge to tap-in range and held a two-shot lead going down the par-five 18th.
Woad asserted in an understated manner, “It’s a pretty good outcome.” “I was playing well and hoping to win,” I said unwaveringly.
“I don’t see many scoreboards out there, but I was aware that it was probably very close at one point.”
“It’s great. Links golf was a lot of fun and went well. I was hoping I wouldn’t mess things up because my Dad had been here all week and my mother had just finished getting the train.
Woad, who was an amateur at the Irish Open, turned professional last week after finishing just one shot short of Grace Kim’s play-off in the women’s fourth major of the year. She lost out on £400, 000 in prize money.
She will now enter the Scottish West Coast’s Women’s Open next week as one of the favorites, earning £220, 000 in prize money for winning.
