She continued with a commendable fourth-place finish at the World Amateur in Abu Dhabi a few weeks ago.
Following Avani was Pranavi Urs, the 2022 Women’s Golf Association of India rankings winner, who shot 68-75-70 to finish solo-third at 3-under 213.
Pranavi recently secured her LPGA Epson Tour playing rights in America for a second straight year.
