- Final-round 67 eases American to second major victory of year
- Play disrupted briefly by Just Stop Oil protesters
Charley Hull fell short in her latest attempt at winning a first major title, as the American Lilia Vu produced a brilliant final-round 67 to win by six shots on a day when the Women’s Open became the latest sporting event to be interrupted by Just Stop Oil protesters.
England’s Hull began the day tied for the lead with Vu but while the latter posted a serene five-under-par total at Walton Heath to clinch her second major, the home favourite finished with a one-over-par 73.
