Nagore Martínez came within a hair's breadth of reaching the final of The Girls Amateur Championship after a brilliant performance in a tournament that brought together the best golfers in the world in this category, and which concluded with a victory for the Frenchwoman Lily Reiter, who beat the Englishwoman Charlotte Naughton in the final, the Spaniard's executioner.

The Catalan golfer became the only Spanish representative in the championship after defeating Denmark's Liva Krol Andersen 1 up in the quarterfinals, while Blanca Gómez-Balboa could not overcome China's Sabrina Wong and fell 6-5.

Then, in the semifinals, Nagore Martínez faced England's Charlotte Naughton, a very tough opponent from the start of the match. So much so that the Spaniard never took the lead, but she never gave up, and that fighting spirit led her to tie the match on the 12th hole. Unfortunately, she couldn't maintain the momentum and ended up losing on the 16th hole 3-2.

In the other semi-final, France's Lily Reiter defeated China's Sabrina Wong by 1 up, so that she faced England's Charlotte Naughton in the final of The Girls Amateur Championship.

In the final match, the French player ended up prevailing, but not without effort. She first took a solid lead over the British player during the first 18 holes in the morning and then, in the afternoon, withstood her rival's push to win 4-2 in the 96th edition of this championship.
