Leona Maguire finishes second in Florida, Seamus Power in tie for fifth in Georgia

NO VICTORIES FOR Leona Maguire and Seamus Power in their respective tournaments in the US this evening but both secured top five finishes after their final rounds.

Maguire’s stunning round of 63 yesterday powered her into the joint lead with Ko. The $2 million prize, the biggest in the history of women’s golf, commanded the spotlight and it was New Zealander Ko that grabbed it with her final round of two-under 72. Power’s final round of four-under 66 took him to -15 for the tournament and saw him finish in a tie for fifth.

Power started the day three shots off the lead on 11-under but his round exploded into life with a string of birdies on the front nine. He picked up shots on the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th to move up to -15.really like? Rare insights on sport's biggest names from the writers who know them best. Listen to Behind the Lines podcast.
