Vani Kapoor and Pranavi Urs finished in Top-20 in the high-profile Investec South African Women's Open golf championship.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Vani, who was in Top-10 after three rounds, and needed a strong final round to make a bid for Top-5 from overnight tied eighth, did get an under-par round but her final round of 1-under 71, still saw her drop to tied 12th at 8-under total.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pranavi had her best round of the week with an exciting 3-under 69 that included a four-in-a-row birdie run and an eagle, but she also dropped a double bogey and two other bogeys. At 7-under she was tied 16th.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Ashleigh Buhai, the winner of the 2022 AIG Women's British Open shot a final round of 68 (-4) to win the title at Steenberg Golf Club. Buhai held a four-shot lead since the midway mark and maintained that tempo.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Buhai had six birdies and two bogeys on the fourth day to win her fifth LET title with a score of 22-under-par and she has now won this tournament four times. Spain's Ana Pelaez Trivino finished second, while Chiara Noja was third.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Vani had only one birdie and one bogey on the front nine and on the back nine, she had two birdies against one bogey.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After seven pars on the front nine, Pranavi bogeyed the eighth and birdied the ninth and she carried on from there for three more birdies in a row till 12th. Later a double bogey on 15th and a bogey on 17th cost her dearly, but an eagle finish saw her bounce back a little for 69.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pelaez Trivino finished in second place yet again after a round of 68 (-4) and a total of 18-under-par. Germany's Chiara Noja ended the week in solo third place on 17-under-par after a fourth-round 69.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After seven pars on the front nine, Pranavi bogeyed the eighth and birdied the ninth and she carried on from there for three more birdies in a row till 12th. Later a double bogey on 15th and a bogey on 17th cost her dearly, but an eagle finish saw her bounce back a little for 69.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
