“Just unbelievable,” Morgan told the website of the USGA, the governing body that runs the game in America and which organises the Senior Women’s Open.<\/p>\n

“I said to my caddie Beth, ‘I’m not looking at the scoreboard until I need to’.<\/p>\n

“I was debating my shot into 18, and I said, ‘Beth, what’s the score?’ <\/p>\n

“She said, ‘You have a six-shot lead,’ so I said, ‘OK, we’re going for it’.<\/p>\n

“I just stayed really calm all day, holed some really good putts, and can’t quite believe it, to be honest.”<\/p>\n

Morgan claimed one victory on the Ladies European Tour – the 2018 Hero Women’s Indian Open.<\/a><\/p>\n

She began the final day at San Diego Country club in a three-way tie for the lead and produced five birdies, two bogeys and several key par-saving putts for a closing 70.<\/p>\n

The victory qualifies Morgan – who twice represented Great Britain & Ireland in the Curtis Cup match against the best amateurs from the US – for the 2026 US Women’s Open at Riviera Country Club.<\/p>\n

“I would not have dreamt this,” added Morgan who stopped playing on the LPGA tour in 2018.<\/p>\n

“Since I started playing on the sort of Senior Tour, I’ve had some decent success, but obviously nothing like this. It’s absolutely unbelievable.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Just unbelievable,” Morgan told the website of the USGA, the governing body that runs the game in America…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":111420,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[427,99],"class_list":["post-111419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=111419"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111419\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/111420"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=111419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=111419"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=111419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
