After two bogeys early in the first round, Cai rolled in a birdie on the eighth. He carded an even-par back side with two birdies to post a final-round 73 and secure the one-shot victory. Jules Gentil and Zhu finished the weekend in a tie for second place at 1-over 145.

Holman used a final-round 70 to earn the five-shot win at 1-under 143, the only under-par total of the tournament. The Fort Pierce native posted a first-round 73 to take a two-shot lead over the field.

Getting off a quick start in the final round, Holman birdied the first two holes of the round. She added a birdie on the 16th to make the turn at 1 under. Holman birdied two of her final five holes to secure the victory with a final-round 70.
