Lottie Woad Holds Steady Lead at Women’s Scottish Open

Lottie Woad ran away with the Women’s Scottish Open on Saturday. She followed with a brilliant 5-under 67 to stretch her margin to two shots. The Englishman continued to dazzle the crowd, carding a brilliant four birdies in just six holes during an impressive stretch around the turn. Baldwin’s command of the game was on full display at Dundonald Links. This performance puts her well on her way to winning in what was her pro-debut.

Woad’s path to get to this moment has been nothing short of incredible. Just three weeks prior, she claimed victory at the Irish Women’s Open on the Ladies European Tour, further solidifying her rise in the sport. Earlier this year, she won the prestigious Augusta National Women’s Amateur, catapulting her to the top of the women’s amateur rankings. American Woad is feeling good as she approaches the championship round of the Scottish Open. She hopes to do what Rose Zhang just accomplished in May — winning on the LPGA Tour in her professional debut.

With a closing par that left her at 17-under 199, Woad has proven herself to be extremely steady. She matched a Tour record by playing 33 straight bogey free holes. She squandered a stroke with a bogey on the par-4 15th hole. These days, her efforts are directed to keeping this momentum going. She’ll take a 3-shot lead into Sunday’s final round, with the dangerous Nanna Koerstz Madsen and Nelly Korda in contention.

“That’s the aim, to shoot as low as possible and keep giving myself chances,” – Lottie Woad

Woad’s sterling performance not only captured the public’s imagination, but heightened expectations as she embarks on her golden summer on Europe’s roads. She has become a beacon of hope for all young aspiring golfers. It also highlights her promise and the promise of girls like her for a better future in professional golf.

As the Women’s Scottish Open is co-sanctioned by the LPGA and the Ladies European Tour, Woad’s victory would mark a significant milestone in her career, establishing her as a prominent figure in women’s golf.
