England’s Lily May Humphreys won her maiden title on the Ladies European Tour with victory in the Joburg Ladies Open at Modderfontein.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The 20-year-old started the final round six shots behind overnight leader Moa Folke.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

But Humphreys fired seven birdies and just one bogey in a six-under par 67 to triumph on 12 under.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sweden’s Folke carded a final-round 75 and finished joint second with Spain’s Ana Pelaez, two shots back on 10 under.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I’m pretty speechless,” said Humphreys. “I felt so nervous playing 18 and I just can’t believe I’ve done it. It’s an incredible feeling and I’m so overwhelmed right now.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Today was simple golf, I stuck to the same gameplan. I wasn’t as aggressive as other people on a few holes, it was what I felt comfortable with and what I felt was best for me and it obviously paid off for me this week. <\/span><\/p>\n

“I stuck to my gameplan and tried to play my best golf. On 15 was when I noticed, and I had a five-foot putt for par and had just seen that I was tied for the lead. <\/span><\/p>\n

“Luckily, I holed that and then followed up with a birdie on 16 and then I didn’t know I had a two-shot lead until I was basically putting on 18. The nerves properly kicked in then.”<\/span><\/p>\n

It was a second professional win for Humphreys, whose first came in The Golf Flanders Trophy on the LET Access Series. <\/span><\/p>\n
