Leona Maguire roared back with a closing round of five under par at the ISPS Handa World Invitational at Galgorm and Massereene, finishing the tournament in 10th place on 10 under par.

Winner, Maja Stark, shot a phenomenal final round of 10 under par, leaving her 20 under for the tournament and five shots ahead of second place Allison Corpuz.

Maguire's round included six birdies and one bogey, as she bounced back from disappointing third round score of 76.

In the men's event, Tom McKibbin finished the best of the Irish, shooting a three under par final round. The score gave him a tie for 10th, finishing on seven under par overall, and six shots behind the winner Ewen Ferguson.

The tournament itself is a unique one. It is co-sanctioned by both the LPGA Tour and the DP World Tour, features two golf courses, and there is a second cut after 54 hole.

Because of the latter rule, David Carey and McKibbin were the only male Irish who made it through to Sunday's final round. Carey finished with an overall score of two over par, after sooting a final round score of four over par.

John Murphy was flying home, after shooting a third round score of five over par.
