On the girls’ side, Francisca Salgado (Vale de Janelas) delivered a masterclass in golf. Her final round of 70 (-2) was the lowest score of the entire tournament across all categories! With a total of 223 (+7), she left Finland’s Liris Ahti trailing by 14 strokes and claimed first place overall among all female competitors.
