New Zealand's Lydia Ko ends an eight-year major drought with victory at the AIG Women's Open at St Andrews.
Lydia Ko ended an eight-year major drought by claiming the AIG Women's Open after a tense finish in blustery conditions at St Andrews.
Last year's champion Lilia Vu failed to hole a 15-foot birdie putt on the last to force a play-off and then missed from 12 inches to gift Ko a two-shot victory. England's Lottie Woad won the Smyth Salver as low amateur, birdieing the last to finish on one under.
