Meanwhile, France\u2019s Agathe Laisne clinched her second Ladies European Tour (LET) title of the season after a dramatic playoff victory over Australia\u2019s Kirsten Rudgeley. The pair, along with South Africa\u2019s Casandra Alexander, were tied at 19-under par after 72 holes, forcing a playoff at Randpark Golf Club.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Alexander, who had bogeyed the final hole in regulation despite a strong 7-under 66, was eliminated on the first playoff hole after failing to match the birdies of Laisne and Rudgeley at the par-5 18th.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Laisne and Rudgeley continued head-to-head for several more playoff holes, matching each other shot for shot as daylight faded. Rudgeley narrowly missed a seven-foot birdie putt for victory on the third playoff hole. With limited light remaining, the 18th hole was shortened to an 78-yard pitch. Laisne seized the opportunity, hitting her shot to within 10 feet and sinking the birdie putt, while Rudgeley\u2019s eight-foot attempt missed, sealing the win for the French golfer. This marks Laisne\u2019s second victory in two months, following her triumph at the Ford Women\u2019s NSW Open in Australia.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Celine Herbin finished fourth at 16-under par, while England\u2019s Cara Gainer and Slovenia\u2019s Pia Babnik shared fifth place at 15-under.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pranavi Urs was the only Indian golfer to advance to the weekend rounds at the Joburg Ladies Open, narrowly making the cut at Randpark Golf Club in Johannesburg. After an impressive opening round of 3-under 70, she followed up with a 1-over 74 in the second round to finish right on the cutline. Despite a tense finish, Pranavi managed to hold her position and was placed tied 52nd.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Her second round was a mixed performance. She started steadily, going 1-under through the front nine, but encountered difficulties later with four bogeys offset by just two birdies. A bogey on her final hole, the ninth, put her qualification in doubt, but she ultimately scraped through by the narrowest margin.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
