Five prizes were awarded to clubs, with the major prize, 
a $1,000 marketing grant and a Women’s Open pin flag signed by the Champion,

WRAP: Ko dominates, Green 3rd in Open
Brilliant Korean Jin Young Ko dominated the ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open but it was also a victory of sorts for Australia’s Hannah Green.
Ko won by three shots when she rolled in a short par putt at the last hole, with Kooyonga’s 18th green surrounded by thousands of spectators.
But the 21-year-old Green secured the best finish of her short LPGA Tour life, and her best result in her national Open, finishing third.
