- Bronte Law sinks a 55-foot eagle putt on the 18th to win the individual title by one stroke over Georgia Hall
- Team Garcia secures play-off victory over Team Wikstrom with par on the first extra-hole
The Aramco Team Series – London finished in dramatic fashion as Bronte Law sank a 55-foot eagle putt from the front of the 18th green to clinch her second LET victory at Centurion Club on Saturday.
A shot behind the clubhouse leader, Georgia Hall, standing on the 18th tee, Law needed a birdie to force a play-off but the 27-year-old from Stockport, England, conjured a piece of magic as she drained a brilliant, monster eagle putt which ran straight up the hill and into the hole for a round of 71 to edge Hall on nine-under-par, sparking jubilant scenes around the gallery.

It’s never over until it’s over. I guess that kind of showed at the end there.”
She hit back with birdies on 15 and 16 to get within one of the lead and said: “I’m competitive, I want to win, so I won’t go down without a fight. I think that’s a testament to today. I never know that I’m going to end up with a win, but I will make sure I give it my all in order to give myself a chance.”
The gritty player said that she knew what she had to do as she lined up her putt on the 18th.
