Janice Moodie closed with a 76 and dropped into a disappointing tie for 42nd place on five over par at the Mastercard Classic at Bosque Real in Mexico.

American veteran Pat Hurst birdied the final two holes for a closing 68 and won the title on 10 under par and by one shot from world No.1 Lorena Ochoa and Tawian’s Yani Tseng.

The career 16th victory helped Hurst towards a place in the US Solheim Cup team in Illinois in August

This week, Moodie, who hopes to make her third Solheim appearance this summer, is the lone Scot in the field for the J Golf Phoenix Invitational in Arizona.
