Shanshan claims Ladies Masters Pro-Am

Dubai: Shanshan Feng led Team Omega-2 to a 23-under-par victory in the Omega Dubai Ladies Masters ProAm at Emirates Golf Club on Tuesday.

Shanshan, 25, teamed up with Manoj Kapur, Michael Harradine and Rosemary Turlik, to finish three-strokes clear of Joanna Klatten’s Omega-8 and five strokes clear of Rebecca Hudson’s Golf For Autism to win the morning shotgun.

Cheyenne Woods, meanwhile, led Team Emirates Global Aluminium-1 to a winning score of 22-under-par in the afternoon shotgun. Woods, 24, and teammates Walid Al Attar, Maurizio La Noce and Greg Sproule, finished three strokes clear of Charley Hull’s Omega-1, while Minjee Lee’s Neocasa Interiors-2 finished a stroke back in third.

Earlier on Monday, England’s Dame Laura Davies and Morocco’s Maha Haddioui hit two under par 25 over Emirates Golf Club’s Par-3 course to win the Omega Dubai Ladies Masters Challenge Match.

The all-Swedish duo of Anna Nordqvist and Sophie Gustafson finished tied for second with China’s Shanshan Feng and Thailand’s Pornanong Phatlum, just a stroke behind.

Davies and Haddioui hit three birdies in a row from the fourth to take control of proceedings. They bogeyed the last but luckily it only narrowed their margin of victory.
