Charley Hull and Lottie Woad tied for sixth place at the AIG Women's Open, finishing four strokes behind champion Shiho Kuwaki at Royal Lytham & St Annes. Dame Laura Davies noted the final round was a missed opportunity for both players, as a score of five under par won the event. Woad's performance included her first over-par round of the tournament, while Hull encountered difficulties with two double-bogeys that marred her scorecard. Despite the setback, Woad's result signifies her fifth top-10 finish in her career as she prepares for her Solheim Cup debut next month.
