Positives for Tan Ahead of Major
The Straits Times
|May 25, 2025
She finishes 2nd in Jabra Open, compared to 2024's T54, to boost hopes for Evian C'ship
A second-placed finish at the Jabra Ladies Open in France on May 24 has given Singaporean golfer Shannon Tan a boost ahead of the July 10-13 Evian Championship, her first Major of the 2025 season.
With both tournaments played at the Evian Resort Golf Club's The Champions Course in Evian-les-Bains, the 21-year-old is excited to return to the venue after a creditable showing this week.
Her confidence stems from a remarkable comeback on the final day of the €300,000 ($440,000) Jabra Ladies Open, as she carded a three-under 68 in the third round of the event for an eight-under 205 total, two strokes behind champion Sara Kouskova (67) of the Czech Republic.
Pleased with how she handled herself mentally, the world No. 126 said: "Overall I am proud of the way I played this week.
"It is always nice to be in contention and while I missed out on the win here, there are positives to take away.
"I struggled on this course in my rookie year last year and finished tied-54th, so to be where I am today feels like a massive improvement which I can be proud of."
