Former world No 1 Stacy Lewis birdied the first extra hole to win the ASI Ladies Scottish Open in a four-way play-off at the Renaissance Club. Lewis holed from 18 feet to secure the 13th LPGA title of her career after finishing tied on five under par with compatriot Cheyenne Knight, Spain's Azahara Munoz and Denmark's Emily Pedersen. Munoz and Pedersen were unable to make unlikely birdies from long range and Knight missed her birdie attempt from 15 feet to keep the play-off going. Lewis, who won the 2013 Women's British Open at St Andrews, began the day a shot behind Munoz but made the ideal start with birdies on the second and third after Munoz had three-putted the opening hole. Munoz looked to be out of contention as she double bogeyed the sixth and dropped another shot on the ninth to be out in 40, but Lewis pitched into a bunker on the 11th to make her own double bogey as all the contenders began to struggle. Three birdies in the first seven holes had given American Jennifer Song the lead on eight under par, but she played her last 10 in five over to miss out on the play-off by two shots. Pedersen was first to set the clubhouse target after a closing 68 and was soon joined by Knight, with Munoz bravely saving par on the 18th from 10 feet after Lewis had never threatened to hole a long birdie attempt to win in regulation.
