Japan’s Ayaka Furue sank a dramatic, clutch putt for eagle on the final hole of the 2024 Amundi Evian Championship in France on Sunday to win by one stroke.
Coming into the final hole, there was a three-way tie with Furue, Australian Stephanie Kyriacou and Thailand’s Patty Tavatanakit at -17.
Furue calmly rolled in the eagle to cap a six-under final round to go 19-under for the tournament – one shot better than Kyriacou who birdied the final hole.
She would birdie the hole and go on to win the title with a dramatic 18th hole eagle to win by a single stroke.
The victory represents her second career victory on the LPGA Tour: Furue previously won the 2022 Women’s Scottish Open.
