South Africa's Paula Reto shot a final round of 4-under 67 to win the Canadian women's golf championship.

Her previous best finish was a third-place mark at the Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic in her rookie year. She played the back nine in 1 over, but by that point she had enough of a cushion to see the win through. The South African set the course record at Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club on Thursday with a first-round 62, but she entered Sunday trailing rookies Hye-Jin Choi and Na Rin An of South Korea by a stroke.

Paula Reto held off late charges from Nelly Korda, Lydia Ko and others to win the 2022 CP Women's Open for her first career LPGA title.

Reto didn’t make any birdies on the back nine and had one bogey, but par golf otherwise was enough to secure the victory. Defending champion Jin Young Ko, who won in 2019 when the CP Women’s Open was last held, didn’t play the weekend after missing the cut. The 32-year-old South African shot a 5-under 31 on the front 9 of Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club to vault into a lead at the 2022 CP Women’s Open in Ottawa, Canada, and she held off a furious back-nine rally from Nelly Korda, Hye-Jin Choi and Lydia Ko, earning Reto her first LPGA victory.

“I haven't really much been in this position, and I was just trying to control myself and be in the moment.” “I'm going to sign a bunch of autographs and take some pictures now because I love them so much and I just can't believe they're out here in full force.” Reto is the eighth Rolex First-Time Winner of the 2022 LPGA Tour season and the fourth consecutive first-time winner; the last time the LPGA Tour had four consecutive first-time winners was 2005. “But I was really nervous, especially I started pulling a few shots and I told myself, okay, just stay in the moment and breathe. Her morning was pure adrenaline, with Reto making the turn carrying a four-stroke lead on the strength of five front-nine birdies. The 32-year-old from South Africa, who now makes her home in southern Florida, knocked in a two-putt par on No.

“I was home and I was trying to practice, so I actually brought out an older putter that I had," Reto said. She lost hers in Ireland and it took a full week to get them back. Reto grew up in South Africa and her family moved to Florida when she was a teenager. In 2013, she went to LPGA Q school and got her card on her first attempt. She gave it a good run but finished with par. Though her back nine was birdie-free, it was just enough to earn her first LPGA Tour win by shooting 67.

“It was so good to finish the way I did on the weekend. But she hit a nifty chip-and-run to about 20 feet and took two putts for the win. 9 and 11 before dunking a 9-iron from about 130 yards for an eagle on the par-4 12th. “It’s such an amazing accomplishment and I’m going to carry it with me for a long, long time.” She had six top-10 results prior to Sunday and won a pro event in South Africa earlier this season. “Obviously, like those times when you go low like that, it’s just the putts drop and everything you see goes in.”
