[07-Oct-2012] Australian Stacey Keating came from three shots behind overnight leader Diana Luna of Italy to capture the Lacoste Ladies Open de France at Chantaco Golf Club on Sunday.
The 26-year-old from Cressy, Victoria, recorded her second straight win on the Ladies European Tour after she earned her maiden title at the Tenerife Ladies Open de Espana a fortnight previously.
Playing in the penultimate group, Keating was quick out of the blocks with four birdies in a row from the second to catch Luna.
Heartbroken Luna was forced to settle for her third straight second place finish in three years at the same tournament. Meanwhile, Keating described the feeling as ‘surreal.’
She was handed the trophy by Sophie Lacoste, President of Lacoste SA in the presence of the recent victorious European Ryder Cup Captain José María Olazábal and former women’s world number one Lorena Ochoa.
