Women's Open 2021: Sweden's Anna Nordqvist wins major at Carnoustie

Sweden's Anna Nordqvist won her third major title after holding her nerve to claim the 2021 Women's Open on a thrilling final day at Carnoustie.

Nordqvist won her first major back in 2009 with the LPGA Championship and added the Evian Championship in 2017, but has been on a barren run since.Having not won a tournament since then and dropped outside of the world's top 50, Nordqvist was not hotly-tipped to challenge at Carnoustie. "I've been waiting for this win for a while. There have been a lot of downs and hard times so this makes it feel even sweeter," said Nordqvist.
