Shannon Tan wins the Magical Kenya Ladies Open! Starting as co-leader in the last part alongside Alessandra Fanali, the young 19-year-old player was not shy and brilliantly won her first title on the Ladies European Tour. Starting very strongly with three birdies on her first three holes, the Singaporean then managed her lead to win with a margin of four strokes over her Italian opponent. By winning this first event of the LET season, she logically takes the lead in the European order of merit.

Alessandra Fanali therefore finished second in this event in Kenya. The Italian was never in the pace of the winner on this last day and found herself relegated four shots from the title after returning a score of 74 (+1).

Camille Chevalier struggled with her game on her last lap. With only seven greens taken in regulation, the best tricolor of this first European week returns a card of 74 (+1) to take 19th final place in this Magical Kenya Ladies Open, twelve strokes behind the winner.

Anne-Lise Caudal, second tricolor to have crossed the Cut, finished 55th with a last card, also 74 (+3).
