Four birdies give Reid Dutch title
The Englishwoman began the day on one under, and coped well with the cool conditions in Vlaardingen to finish the tournament on three under overall.
Dropped shots on the sixth and 17th holes prevented Reid from pulling completely away, but her rivals ultimately fell short in their attempts to catch up. Caroline Afonso, Caroline Hedwall and overnight leader Holly Aitchison finished tied for second.
