If you’ve paid attention to her season, it would come as no surprise that Steph Kyriacou ended it with an almighty bang.
The 19-year-old Sydneysider effectively sealed the Ladies European Tour rookie of the year title overnight with one of her best performances in a year of many contenders.
Kyriacou, a member at St Michael’s in Sydney’s east, roared home with a course-record 63 at the Royal Greens Golf and Country Club to finish joint second in the Saudi Ladies Team International.
The long-time New South Wales state team player finished just two shots adrift of champion and LET No.1 Emily Pedersen, who also secured the tour’s Race to Costa Del Sol honours after her clean sweep of the Saudi Arabian swing for her third individual victory of the season.
The Dane’s team made a birdie on its last hole to edge out Kyriacou’s group by a single shot in the team event.
But it was Kyriacou who set the course alight in the final round of the 54-hole event.
