“It’ll take some time to sink in, I’m thrilled and really excited to get that first LET win,” said Boulden, who had gone into the final round one shot down on Sanna Nuutinen.
“I am obviously overwhelmed. I was looking forward to getting out there today and I haven’t been in this position for quite a while, so I just tried to enjoy it.
“I feel like this is going to be a big boost in confidence for me.
“My goals this year were to put myself in to contention, I am really happy with how I handled the pressure and how I put my foot down on the gas when I needed to.”

“I’m just looking forward to being in these positions again over the next few years. This is where I want to be, I want to be competing to win, not struggling out there like I have over the last few years.
“I’m just really looking forward to the next chapter.”
Boulden, who regained her Tour card after winning the qualifying school last January, made eight birdies and no bogeys in the final round to finish with a closing 64 and finish the tournament on 17 under par.
