France’s Anne-Lise Caudal picked up her second victory as a professional winning this week's Ladies European Tour Access Series event in France, La Nivelle Ladies Open, by four shots from fellow Frenchwoman Julie Maisongrosse.
Caudal, 25, playing on her home course, Golf de la Nivelle in Ciboure, started the final round at seven under par, two shots ahead of Maisongrosse. Caudal covered her opening nine holes level with the card before dropping a shot to par on the homeward nine to shoot 71 and finish the tournament at 6 under. Caudal said "This comes at a perfect time, when our European season will really start. I knew for several weeks that I struck the ball well. This victory will allow me to enter into this season full of confidence. "
Her closet challenger, Maisongrosse closed to within one shot of Caudal after a birdie at the tough 360-yard par 4 11th but bogeys on the 14th, 16th and 17th ended her challenge for the title.
