England's Charlotte Heath secured her maiden Ladies European Tour title in dramatic fashion at the La Sella Open in Denia, Alicante. The 24-year-old rookie started the final round with a four-shot advantage, but saw her lead disappear during a tense Sunday afternoon. Despite this, she held her composure to card a final-round 73 and finish at 10 under par, two shots clear of the field.

Weather-affected days and gusting winds added difficulty, setting the stage for a thrilling finale. Heath's front nine featured a solitary bogey at the fifth, while Germany's Helen Briem mounted a strong challenge, briefly drawing level at nine under par through 13 holes. However, Briem dropped a shot, allowing Heath to reclaim the outright lead.

On the final hole, Heath split the fairway with her drive, pitched to nine feet, and confidently rolled in a birdie putt to seal victory. The win earns Heath her first LET title, a £128,722 winner's cheque, and an unforgettable breakthrough moment in her rookie season.
