Agathe Laisne emerged victorious at the Ford Women’s NSW Open in Australia as she earned a first win on the Ladies European Tour.<\/p>\n
The Frenchwoman’s six-under 65 at Wollongong Golf Club on Sunday ensured that she finished on 16-under, one shot clear of Thailand’s April Angurasaranee and Korean amateur Soomin Oh.<\/p>\n
Laisne is the second winner of the season on the LET after Charley Hull won the PIF Saudi Ladies International last month<\/a>.<\/p>\n “It feels really great,” Laisne said. “I’m really happy. It feels surreal and I\u2019m very, very happy. What\u2019s next? No, I\u2019m kidding! [But this win] means that my game is improving and I\u2019m doing the right thing. I hope to continue and I\u2019m really happy.”<\/p>\n \u00c1ine Donegan led the Irish challenge on what was her professional debut on the LET. The Clare woman carded a 70 to finish seven shots behind Laisne in a tie for 16th on nine-under.<\/p>\n The Clare woman had topped the leaderboard<\/a> after Friday’s second round. But a costly 74 on Saturday had dropped her out of contention<\/a> before Sunday’s tournament climax.<\/p>\n Dublin’s Anna Foster was tied for 37th on four-under after a level-par 71.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Agathe Laisne emerged victorious at the Ford Women’s NSW Open in Australia as she earned a first win…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":452068,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[5904,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-452067","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/452067","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=452067"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/452067\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/452068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=452067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=452067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=452067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
