Lothians star Catriona Matthew staged a storming finish to claim a top-ten spot in the Kia Classic at Carslbad in California.
After slipping down the field following scores of 75 and 74 in the second and third rounds, the Ricoh Women's British Open champion closed with a 67 to secure a share of sixth spot behind Hee Kyung Seo.
The North Berwick player earned a cheque $46,961 and will now head into the opening major of the season - this week's Kraft Nabisco Championship - in good spirits.
