Portuguese title winner Crepiat runner-up at Las Palmas


France's Lucie Andre wins Spanish

championship with 5 & 4 final win

Lucie Andre, the No 3 seed, beat Rosanna Crepiat, 21st of the 32 qualifiers for the match-play stages, by 5 and 4 in today's 18-hole final of the Spanish women's open amateur championship for the Queen's Cup at Las Palmas, Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands.
France provided three of the four semi-finalists. Rosanna (left) and Lucie (right) are pictured right after the presentation ceremony.
In the Portuguese women's open amateur championship at the start of February, Rosanna Crepiat won the fog-abbreviated stroke-play championship with a 54-hole total of 217. Lucie Andrew was second with 218. Now, in a match-play format, the positions have been reversed.
But it reflects well on French women's/girls' golf, that they have proved the 1-2 in the Portuguese and now the Spanish women's championships.
Lucie Andre is a member of Mionnay La Dombes Golf Club at the town/city of Mionnay, about 20 kilometres from Lyon.
Rosanna Crepiat is a member of Marseille La Salette Golf Club in the Provence, one of the most beautiful countrysides in France.
