Emily became a two-time WMF champion, defeating defending champion Ruth Burke in a sudden-death play-off at the third extra hole as both players had tied after six rounds.

The event took place at the 18-hole Pirate-themed Adventure Golf course in Hastings last weekend, with 37 players in the individual tournament along with a seven-team team competition.
