Ladies European Tour: Carolina Chacarra wins Hulencourt Women’s Open as Bronte Law, Hannah Screen record top-10 finishes | Golf News

Carolina Chacarra won her maiden Ladies European Tour title by finishing on 12 under at the Hulencourt Women’s Open in Belgium.

The Spaniard’s remarkable second-round 65 – which tied the course record – put her in control heading into the weekend, and she bounced back well from a disappointing third-round 73 with four birdies in her final-round 68 to secure a prize pot that eclipsed all of her previous career earnings on the tour combined.

Chacarra’s older brother Eugenio plays on the DP World Tour and enjoyed a superb June with victories at the KLM Open and Open d’Italia last weekend.

Meanwhile, Englishwoman Bronte Law finished fourth on four under after a final-round 70, one shot ahead of fellow Brit Hannah Screen in sixth after she finished the weekend strongly with a 66.

Kelsie Bennett took a two-shot lead into the final round but finished three shots behind Chacarra on nine under following a final-day 73. After a disappointing front nine saw her notch a bogey without any birdies, two more bogeys on the back nine proved the nail in the coffin as the Australian ended as runner-up.

Aditi Ashok recorded five birdies and three bogeys in a final-round 70 to secure a seven-under finish and third on the leaderboard.

Luna Sobron Galmes equalled Chacarra’s course record in her final round with an astonishing 10-birdie performance – which also included a bogey and a double-bogey – but a third-round 76 meant she finished outside the top 20 on two over.
