Leona Maguire started strong at the Ladies European Tour’s Aramco Team Series London event and finished with a victory at the Centurion Club.
Maguire shot a 66 in the opening round and followed it up with rounds of 72 and 73 to win the individual title at 8 under for the tournament. Maria Hernandez finished one stroke behind Maguire, while Alison Lee, Lauren Walsh, and Georgia Hall tied for third at 6 under.
Walsh, an Irish golfer who played at Wake Forest, briefly took the lead with a 65, but Hernandez birdied the 18th hole to go up to 7 under.
At 6 under, Maguire made a crucial shot with her hybrid club, landing it on the green to set up a winning putt.
WHAT. A. SHOT.

With the pressure on, Maguire sank the winning putt to beat Hernandez, earning her first LET victory to add to her two LPGA wins, the last one being over a year ago at the 2023 Meijer LPGA Classic.
World class. 🏆
