American Lauren Coughlin wins Women's Scottish Open and locks up spot on Solheim Cup

Lauren Coughlin pulled away with superb putting and closed with a 3-under 69 to win the Women's Scottish Open on Sunday, her second LPGA title this summer, to secure a spot on the U.S. Solheim Cup team. Coughlin, who won the CPKC Women's Open in Canada three weeks ago, recovered from a pair of early bogeys to move ahead of Megan Khang on the front nine and Esther Henseleit of Germany on the back nine at Dundonald Links. The 31-year-old American one-putted the final seven holes on a chilly day along the Ayrshire Coast, none more devastating to Henseleit than the 16th hole.
