Thai amateur sensation Atthaya Thitikul finished as the leading amateur at the AIG Women’s British Open today. With rounds of 73, 68, 70, 73 she finished the championship in a tie for 29th place on four-under-par 284 to earn The Smyth Salver. This is the second year in a row that Thitikul has claimed the low amateur honour. Thitikul, the inaugural Women’s Amateur Asia-Pacific champion, was one of two amateurs to make the cut at the year’s final major.
Also playing all four rounds at Woburn Golf Club was current Women’s Amateur Asia-Pacific champion Yuka Yasuda of Japan, who earned her place in the field this week thanks to her victory in April.
Yasuda posted rounds of 73, 70, 70 and 77 to finish the championship on two-over par 290 and tied 59th place. As a result of her Women’s Amateur Asia-Pacific Championship victory, Yasuda also earned an invitation to last week’s Evian Championship where she was the equal leading amateur, finishing in a tie for 37th.
The AIG Women’s British Open was won by Hinako Shibuno of Japan who recorded rounds of 66, 69, 67 and 68 for a tournament total 18-under par 270.
