Dame Laura Davies claims wire-to-wire win at Senior LPGA Championship


Dame Laura Davies claimed her second women's senior major title of the 2018 season with a wire-to-wire victory at the Senior LPGA Championship.

Davies defied winds gusting up to 25mph at French Link in Indiana to card a final round of 70 and finish eight under par, four shots clear of Helen Alfredsson and winner Silvia Cavalleri.

American Michele Redman was the only other player to finish in red figures on one under.

"This is fantastic," Davies said. "Winning the US Senior Women's Open was a real thrill and this is a golf course that I didn't think I could win on. So for me, this is a real victory. I've always played okay around here, but I've never strung three rounds together. I've always had one big number so this is nice."

The victory means Davies has won both senior women's majors on the schedule.

"I wish there were more of them to play," the 55-year-old added.
