So nice she had to do it twice. Sara Kouskova is a two-time Ladies European Tour (LET) winner in the space of two events after the Olympian held her nerve to land the Tenerife Women’s Open.

Having claimed the Jabra Ladies Open a fortnight ago, Kouskova carded a final round 71 (-1) at Abama Golf to see off German Helen Briem and clinch trophy number two of the season.

One clear heading into the final round, Kouskova got off to the hottest of starts birdying her opening two holes in Tenerife to move into a three-shot lead.

As Patricia Isabel Schmidt made a surge elsewhere – the German birdied five of her first six holes at Abama Golf – Kouskova added another birdie at the par-5 6th before dropping a shot at the scenic par-3 7th.

But after the turn the Czech star quickly stormed clear, Kouskova firing brilliant birdies at the 10th and 11th to give herself a four-shot lead over Schmidt, Briem and Emma Spitz.

Four shots would soon become five as her rivals faltered before a dramatic finish ensued.

A bogey at the 15th moved Kouskova to 11-under par, with the 25-year-old making a nightmare double-bogey on the 16th after her approach pitched behind a palm tree.

One hole ahead, Briem made a two-putt birdie on the short par-5 17th to narrow the gap to just one.

But as the sun shone brightly on Abama Golf, Kouskova held her nerve making back-to-back pars to seal the one-shot victory.
