Windsor's Jasmine Ly enjoyed playing at home and won the Ontario Women's Amateur Championships in front of an excited gallery at Pointe West Golf Thursday afternoon. The Holy Names grad had a tournament high six birdies which helped offset three bogeys to finish 3-under-69.
It was the third time Ly shot under par during the four day tournament. The NIU Huskies golfer was 8-under the tournament and finished with a four-day total of 280.
Monet Chun of Richmond Hills' Summit Golf and Country Club shot an 8-under-64 to finish second with a total of 283. Today's score was a women's course record. The previous record was 70 which was tied or broken 21 times from a longer distance (an extra 400+yards).
Tilbury's Haley Katona tied for 8th (293) after shooting two-under. Chatham's Brooke MacKinnon tied for 20th.
"It was phenomenal" said Rick Schmidgall, director at Pointe West Golf Club. "Great to watch. These women are good and it was a pleasure to host them".
