  • Intro:

    Gwladys Nocera shoots a final round of 70 to win the Lalla Meryem Cup by two shots.

    Script:

    The final round of the Lalla Meryem Cup got underway at the Golf De L'Ocean course in Agadir, Morocco

    Nicole Garcia had headed into the final day just two shots off the lead and made a strong start with three birdies on the front nine holes - including this at the 8th.

    But much of her good work was undone with three bogeys on the back nine, and she finished her round in 70 one-under-par for the day and 11-under-par overall.

    Level with her at that mark is Felicity Johnson of England.

    She carded a superb four-under-par 67 on the final day, and could have finished higher had it not been for a frustrating two bogeys over the last three holes.

    Fellow English golfer Melissa Reid also finished at 11-under-par.

    The 27 year old enjoyed eight birdies including this chip at the 11th, as she finished the tournament on a high with a round of 66, five-under-par.

    But the woman out in front was Gwladys Nocera of France.

    She started the final round with a two shot lead and carded a one-under-par round of 70 to win the title by two shots at 13-under-par overall.

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Gwladys Nocera

    "Yes it was a tough day. Towards the end I took a really stupid double bogey which put me in trouble. I just missed one fairway today and I took a double bogey (at it) so that was a shame but I wanted this tournament really badly. I've always said it and I'm really happy I did it."
