Ahead of her debut Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Epson Tour season, Amanda Tan received a confidence boost despite finishing near the bottom of the HSBC Women's World Championship.
The 23-year-old, who has featured in the tournament five times, wrapped up the US$1.8 million (S$2.4 million) event at Sentosa Golf Club's New Tanjong Course with a one-over 73 on Sunday to finish 62nd of 66 golfers.
She compiled earlier rounds of 76, 74 and 73 and her eight-over 296 total surpassed the previous best score by a Singaporean, Koh Sock Hwee, who posted a 10-over 298, although that was at Sentosa's Serapong Course.
Tan will next feature at the Epson Tour's March 16-19 Carlisle Arizona Women's Golf Classic.
