Thailand’s Chanettee Wannasaen carded a final round of level par (73) to win the Trust Golf Links Series at Ramside Hall by three shots.
The 18-year-old started her final round in the LET Access Series event with a birdie on the first, adding two more and dropping three strokes on the front nine to make the turn in 37.
She then made one more bogey on the 11th hole and swiftly erased it with a birdie on the 12th, going on to finish the round at even par and secure her maiden win in Europe.
“It means a lot to win in Europe and I am very happy with my game,” said Chanettee – a member of the Thai LPGA. “I felt really confident today and I knew I could make it. I am going to celebrate the triumph tonight with my friends and we will go to the best Thai restaurant in town. I really cannot wait!”
The level par final round followed an impressive nine under-par 64 on day two in Durham for Chanettee, who led the field by three shots at 11 under-par as compatriot Arpichaya Yubol finished in second place.
Meanwhile, Durham-based amateur Jess Hall finished in a tie for fourth place with a three-round total of two under-par.
The LET Access Series continues with the Trust Golf Links Series at The Musselburgh Golf Club on July 14-16.
