Rebecca Artis rallies to win Ladies Scottish Open

Rebecca Artis surged past Round 3 leader Suzann Pettersen on Sunday to win the Ladies Scottish Open at Dundonald Links in North Ayrshire.

Artis headed into the final round six strokes behind leader Pettersen, and shot a 6-under 66 to finish two strokes better than the Norwegian.

"Sometimes you fight all your life to try and get that first win and sometimes the second win is maybe even harder," Artis said.

"I’ve been playing some really consistent golf since the start of the year, putting myself in contention week in, week out. I knew that with the conditions the way they were predicted to be today that if I went out and played some solid golf, then I wouldn’t be far away."

Pettersen ended the tournament in second place at 4-under, while Holly Clyburn was third at 2-under.
