Sussex’s Lexi Dart sunk a 30-foot birdie putt on the final hole to be crowned the English Women’s County Champion of Champions held at Woodhall Spa’s Bracken Course.

Having shot 75 (+3) on day one, Dart needed to birdie the final hole on day two to win after Morgan Bollan (Cheshire) finished on +6 across her 36 holes. She did so in style, completing a second round 74 to win the title by one shot.

“It’s very exciting and very unexpected to win,” said Dart, who is a member at The Dyke Golf Club in Brighton. “I didn’t really have any goals coming into this other than to enjoy it, which I definitely did. It’s the biggest thing I’ve won to date.

“The first round was a bit of a struggle – my irons weren’t going so well. But my second round I hit some nice ones, kept it on the fairway and holed some putts. I almost chipped in for eagle on 14, so it was nice to have an easy birdie there, and then on 18, I just thought I best give it a good go and I was lucky it went in.”

With Bollan filling the runner-up spot, Selina Bartarya (Kent) and Haley Yerxa (Hertfordshire) finished tied third on +10.
