Bo edges Nocera for first title
Unheralded Bo Mi-suh held off French star Gwladys Nocera to secure her 1st career win at the Suzhou Taihu Ladies Open.
Little-known Bo Mi-suh held her nerve to card a level-par 72 and capture her first career win at the Suzhou Taihu Ladies Open.
The South Korean carded three birdies against three bogeys at the Suzhou Taihu International Golf Club to finish with a three-day total of six-under 210, one shot ahead of Frenchwoman Gwladys Nocera.
Bo plays on the Ladies Asian Golf Tour (LAGT) but as a non-member of the Ladies European Tour, the victory now gives Bo the chance to join without having to qualify.
Nocera carded a two-under 70 for a five-under 211 total while Thailand’s Pornanong Phatlum (70) finished a shot further behind in third.
The tournament is a tri-sanctioned event between the Ladies European Tour, China Golf Association and the Ladies Asian Golf Tour.
