Aditi earns LPGA Tour membership for 2017

Aditi closed with 1-over 73 to finish at 2-under 358. She ended tied-24th. Golfers finishing in the top 20 after the final round earned the full LPGA status for 2017, while a partial LPGA status was given to those who finished between 21st and 45th.

Aditi fell short of full status but her performance ensured she is now an LPGA member -- becoming only the second woman to earn the status after Simi Mehra.

After scoring a 1-over 73 in her first round, Aditi made a strong comeback in her next rounds, shooting a 2-under 70, 1-under 71 and 1-under 71 to begin the final round in the tied-27th position.

"It was a long week with a lot of ups and downs throughout the week," she said. "I think I could have done better, I finished just 2-under, but it is not bad."

Aditi's recent run of form has included back-to-back titles on the Ladies European Tour in India and Qatar. She also rose 66 spots to attain to a career-best world ranking of 132 in women's golf.

"The last couple weeks have been amazing starting with my win back home in India," Aditi said. "I won last week in Qatar and moved up the Order of Merit and hopefully I can do well in Dubai next week and then it will be a good year."
