“Watch The Masters Live from Augusta on Sky Sports Golf: Lottie Woad Makes History”
Lottie Woad Makes History at Augusta National Women’s Amateur
In a thrilling final round at Augusta, Lottie Woad made history by becoming the first British player to win the Augusta National Women’s Amateur. The 20-year-old sensation birdied three of her final four holes to finish at -8, just one shot ahead of Bailey Shoemaker.
Woad’s victory is a significant milestone for British golf, as she joins the ranks of previous winners like America’s Rose Zhang. Reflecting on her win, Woad expressed her excitement and gratitude, saying, “It means so much. I watched this event when I was younger so I always wanted to play in it, try and contend and then to win it was just really special.”
The young golfer credited a crucial par save on the 14th hole as a turning point in her round, helping her maintain her lead and eventually secure the victory. Woad also highlighted the support she received from her family, particularly her 85-year-old grandmother who traveled from England to watch her play.
