Ffion Tynan saw her run at the Women’s Amateur Championship ended after a battling display at the West Lancashire course near Liverpool.

The Pontyclun prospect narrowly lost 2&1 to Curtis Cup golfer Annabell Fuller to just miss out on a spot in the quarter-finals.

Roehampton’s Fuller last week won the English Women’s Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship  when Tynan was the highest placed Welsh finisher in fifth.

A Wonderful week @WestLancsGC @westlancsgreens for the @RandA Womens Amateur, came up short in my last 16 match with @annabellfuller1 2&1. Such a fantastic event and thanks to everyone who made my time there very safe and enjoyable. See you all soon 😊⛳️💕 pic.twitter.com/WS3j5KtKbC
