KIRSTEN RUDGELEY WINS THE SCOTTISH WOMEN'S OPEN

Kirsten Rudgeley shot a closing six-under-par 66 to storm through the field and win the Helen Holm Scottish Women’s Open title at Troon today.
Kirsten Rudgeley, from Perth, Western Australia, started her final round on Royal Troon's Portland Course four shots adrift of the overnight leader, Scotland's Hannah Darling.

A final birdie on the 18th saw the Australian complete a bogey-free, six-under-par 66 and finish with a twelve-under-par total of 204, which was enough to claim a one shot victory over both Scotland's Hannah Darling and the 2019 Women’s Amateur champion, England's Emily Toy.

It is 19 years since a Scot, Heather Stirling, lifted the Helen Holm trophy.

Megan Ashley (Blairgowrie) shot a final round of 75 to finish T23 on 131.
