Linn Grant became the best Swedish after having played the final round on par – a total of one under. Anna Nordqvist ended Sunday three over par, a total of one over par. Madelene Sagström had it even tougher during the final round, four over and a total of five over par.

Briton Charley Hull had a strong final day and put a little pressure on Miyu Yamashita. The Japanese, who had not shown any emotions during the weekend's play, could however still keep her nerves in check and putt home the victory – a total of eleven under par.

After the victory, there were both smiles, tears of joy and a champagne shower for the winning 24-year-old. Compatriot Minami Katsu and Charley Hull both finished behind Yamashita at nine under par.
