    And she went through the green too into a bunker.

    Tricky putt for birdie on 17. She putts well though - missed a birdie by a whisker on the last hole.

    And a nervy wait as she looks on at the leader.

    From the Ladies Euro tour website...

    "Gustafson knew the right things to say at the key moments, but a clubbing decision on the par three 18th tee cost the less experienced Maguire the chance to win the title.

    Handling the disappointment like a professional, Maguire explained: “I knew it was tight coming up 18 and we didn’t really know where the wind was coming from. I thought it was downwind, dad thought it was into the wind and it was probably the wrong club off the tee but I’m very proud of the way I played all day. Going out at the start of the day I would have taken that so it’s been a great day.”

    Superb stuff from Leona.

    She got 9 Rolex ranking points for finishing runner so she debuts at 336 in the world rankings.

    Also in the bag is an invite to the last major of the year (Evian Masters).
    She might also try to qualify for the British Open.
    European team championships on this week.

    She's failed to qualify for the British Open - that's a pity

    What was the story with her caddie? She was on the radio being interviewed about her failure to qualify. Apparently the caddie left his phone on and it rang on the first fairway costing her a 2 shot penalty. He then gave her a wrong yardage. She was polite but you could tell she was seething with him. Don't know who he was but apparently a seasoned Tour caddie.

    Wow, that's poor form to say the least, how much did she end up missing the cut by?

    I'd love to see a rule brought in for a 2 shot penalty for any player whose phone rings on the course in any competition.

    Watching it on SS and no sign or mention of her, in fairness too far back, still Creamer missed the cut

    Leona up to 280th in the world rankings now, good ranking considering the divisor is 35 and she only has 2 counting events. Still number 1 in amateur rankings as well. Stephanie Meadow is ranked 161, she's struggled this year.
