Thai teen captures first professional title

Thai teenager Ariya Jutanugarn captured her first professional title on Sunday when she claimed a three-shot win at the Lalla Meryem Cup on the Ladies European Tour. The 17-year-old from Bangkok came from a stroke behind overnight leader Charley Hull to earn victory with rounds of 69, 67, 67 and 67 for a 14 under par total at the par-71 Golf de l\'Ocean. \"I played very good today on the front nine and on the second nine, the par 5, it got really exciting because there was only one shot lead,\" said Ariya. \"Yesterday my putting was not very good but the front nine made me confident with my putting. The 15th hole, I was really scared with my driver because in the practice round I didn\'t hit my driver well, so when I hit to the left, I thought, a bogey is fine, but I had seven.\" From: AFP
