Celine Boutier Player Profile And What's In The Bag
Article Updated - August 2023
Celine Boutier completed back-to-back successes at Dundonald Links, following her sensational victory in the Evian Championship by claiming the Women’s Scottish Open.
She began the final day with a three-shot lead and her round of 70 was good enough to see off Hyo-Joo Jim by two shots. Boutier recorded rounds of 69, 68, 66 and 70 for a 15-under-par total of 273. Kim finished what a 65 but was too far behind to seriously challenge the French golfer.
The Frenchwoman birdied her sixth, ninth and 13th holes and appeared to be strolling to victory at 16 under par, only for blemishes at 14 and 16 - and a final-hole birdie for Kim to cut her lead to one stroke.
However, Boutier recovered to birdie the 17th before parring the last and will now look to make it three tournament victories in a row at the AIG Women's Open at Walton Heath.
A delighted Boutier said: “It's completely crazy. I would have never imagined that I would be able to win not one, but two tournaments in a row, and yeah, I'm just incredibly in shock. Yeah, I don't think I know what to say or what to think. I think it's just completely out of control. I'm not sure what to think.”
Kim's 65 featured seven birdies and no blemishes, while China's Ruoning Yin finished third on 12 under following a six-under 66.
Boutier headed into the final round of the Scottish Open on 13 under par, three shots clear of Patty Tavatanakit and Maja Stark.
Stark's push for victory was dented when she double-bogeyed her fourth hole but she wiped out that damage on the par-three sixth with an ace.
The Swede went on to birdie the ninth but recorded two bogeys and just one birdie on her back nine to end up four shots adrift on 11 under, which was good enough for a share of fourth with A Lim Kim.
Like Boutier, Tavatanakit was three under through 13 holes in her final round, only to then drop three shots across her next two to finish in a share of sixth on 10 under.
