As the golf season begins to come to a close, we focus on who will be playing where next year. Sweden’s Andrea Lignell knew she needed to win the 2025 Iberdrola Calatayud Ladies Open to have a chance of securing her LET membership for 2026. The top seven players in the LETAS (Ladies European Tour Access Series) would earn their LET cards for the following season; LETAS is the equivalent to the Epson Tour under the LPGA Tour.
“Right now, I’m actually kind of lost for words,” said an emotional Lignell, “This was the goal coming here this week knowing that I probably needed to win. But I felt like my game was in a pretty good place coming into this week already, so I knew I at least had a chance.”
Lignell shot all three rounds in the 60s in Spain to win by two. She birdied holes 12, 13 and 15 to close the deal.
This isn’t Lignell’s first rodeo trying to earn her card. “I feel a bit relieved,” said Lignell. “Obviously as I missed out by a few last year when there were eight cards on the line, and now seven this year.
This is Lignell’s second professional win, and it bumped her up to fourth place in the LETAS rankings.
