Tvesa Malik finishes at T-16 in South Africa, Ridhima at T-30

Talented golfer Tvesa Malik finished T-16 while fellow Indian Ridhima Dilawari was T-30 at the Absa Ladies Invitational on the Sunshine Ladies Tour.

Tvesa, multiple winner in Hero Women’s Pro Golf Tour in India, and winner in South Africa last month, shot 72-72-74 for 2-over. She had three bogeys and a double between the fourth and the seventh, but she closed superbly with three birdies between 13th and 18th. Ridhima with 74-73-75 was 6-over.

Casandra Alexander fired a superb six-under 66 on Saturday to finish on 12-under-par overall and win the Absa Ladies Invitational by four strokes at Serengeti Estates.

The 24-year-old had begun the final day tied for the lead with fellow South African Kiera Floyd, but Alexander went out in 34 before a brilliant back nine saw her collect an eagle and two birdies to romp to victory.
