Shannon Tan Clinches Hero Women’s Indian Open as Hewson Stumbles on 18th

The win lifts the 21-year-old to No. 1 on the LET Order of Merit.

Overview

  • Tan closed with a five-under 67, mixing six birdies with a lone bogey, to post seven-under 281 and edge Alice Hewson by one.
  • Hewson led to the final hole before a drive into water led to a double bogey on the par-5 18th.
  • The triumph is Tan’s third Ladies European Tour title, adding to the Magical Kenya Ladies Open (2024) and the Amundi German Masters (June 2025).
  • Leading the season-long standings strengthens her pathway to year-end honors and LPGA Q-Series opportunities.
  • She overcame a late visa approval to arrive in India on Oct 7, and local hope Hitaashee Bakshi, the overnight leader, slipped to third.
