Lauren Coughlin came into the final day leading by one stroke at the ISPS HANDA Women\u2019s Scottish Open. She didn\u2019t get off to the best of starts with bogeys on the second and fourth holes, but soon bounced back with birdies on five and seven. With Germany\u2019s Esther Henseleit closing the gap, the 31-year-old American rolled in back-to-back birdies on 14 and 15 to extend her advantage and give herself a three-stroke lead. Down the stretch, Coughlin made a great par-save on 16 before rolling in her birdie putt on 18 to clinch a four-stroke victory, her second LPGA Tour victory in her last three starts.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s unbelievable,\u201d said Coughlin. \u201cTwo wins in three events is pretty crazy, but I just stuck in there, tried to stay as present as I could, and got some putts to drop at the end. If you would have told me, let alone beginning of this year, but beginning of last year, I wouldn\u2019t believe this is what I\u2019ve done and it\u2019s incredible. It\u2019s just how hard I\u2019ve worked to get here, and it\u2019s amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n
