Bailey Tardy wins the Blue Bay LPGA, Céline Boutier 12th
Thanks to a demonstration on the last round, Bailey Tardy wins the Blue Bay LPGA by four strokes. At age 27, she earned her first LPGA victory by lifting the Blue Bay LPGA trophy, just a year after becoming a member of the American women's tour. Céline Boutier finished 12th in China thanks to a nice weekend in 68-68. With this new good performance, Céline Boutier will get closer to the world number 1 position. Agathe Lasiné ranks 55th
Thanks to a strong final day, Bailey Tardy won her first LPGA title. The American, after ten holes at -2, closed her week with five birdies on her last eight holes. An LPGA player since last year, this success comes for the American as a resurrection for her who had only scored one top 10 in 2023.

Sarah Schmelzel and Ayaka Furue finished 2nd and 3rd respectively. Lydia Ko and Minjee Lee both finished close to the podium in fourth position.
Céline Boutier thanks to a good weekend climbs back to 12th place in this Chinese event. The French number 1 returned two cards of 68 (-4) on Saturday and Sunday to make a nice jump in the rankings. The world number 3 should get very close to Nelly Korda in front of her in the world rankings, and perhaps even surpass her.
Agathe Laisné finished 55th at +3 total. Despite a final round of 72 (PAR), a cleared cut remains a good performance in such a tough field of players.
Lilia Vu dropped out again this week, this time after the first round. She will not score points for the world rankings this week.
Six birdies and an eagle in her final 11 holes lift Bailey Tardy to her first Tour win at #BlueBayLPGA!
