Neha Tripathi made amends for the second day with a closing round of even par 72 that gave her a decent finish of Tied-33rd at the Sanya Ladies Open here today.
It also primed up Neha two weeks before the Hero Women's Indian Open, where she will be among one of the leading Indian challengers for the USD 400,000 event.
The other Indian contender in the field was Saaniya Sharma, who was off colour and shot 81 to finish at 12-over and Tied-61st.
Thailand's Supamas Sangchan came from two strokes back to capture her first Ladies European Tour trophy. The 20-year-old second year China LPGA Tour player from Bangkok fired a final round of 68 to finish with a 54-hole total of eight-under-par and edge Sweden's Caroline Hedwall by a shot.
Amelia Lewis of the United States tied for third place with China's Yuting Shi on six-under-par and rookie professional Olivia Cowan of Germany finished two strokes further behind in fourth.
Sangchan held firm in the strong breeze, gusting at 35 miles per hour, to register her second professional victory, following a maiden win on the Thai LPGA last summer.
Sangchan wore a black ribbon on her cap throughout the tournament and said that she wanted to bring the trophy home to honour the late King of Thailand.
