BEIJING - China's Xu Ying captured her third CLPG Tour title of the year, and first win as a professional, with a two-shot victory at the Fila Golf Women's Classic on Saturday.

The 16-year-old Zhuhai native, who turned professional two weeks ago at the Women's China Open, closed with a round of one-under 71 at Bayhood No. 9 International Golf Club for a 54-hole score of three-under 213.

China's Li Jieni finished runner-up after a 73, one stroke ahead of Huang Ching (71) of Chinese Taipei. Tianjin teenager An Zining closed with 71 to finish low amateur, tied for equal fourth with Chinese pros Shi Yuli (67), Xue Zixuan (72), Sui Xiang (72) and Thailand's Nanthikarn Raksachat (74) at four shots back.

Xu, who was the top individual player at last month's World Amateur Team Championship in Singapore, started the day tied for the lead with three players. After picking up a stroke at the 323-yard third hole where she made a 20-foot putt to get to three-under, the long-and-lean teenager did just enough in a round featuring three birdies and two bogeys to secure her first win in the paid ranks.

Highlights included a 35-foot birdie putt at the 11th and a 55-foot birdie putt at the 13th hole.

"I played pretty good today, especially with my putting. I sank a lot of long putts, which I'm really satisfied about. My drives were also quite steady," said Xu, who also won in Zhuhai and Chongqing earlier this year.

She said "maturity, confidence and patience" were the key words to describe this victory.

"Compared to my amateur days or previous tournaments, I feel I've become more mature, including from observing top players. I was quite steady in this event and played very patiently - these three words sum it up."

Li, a second-year pro from Nanchang, Jiangxi province, started the day as one of the leaders but could not overcome the four bogeys she carded, despite making three birdies over the last five holes, in the hunt for her first pro title. An 18-foot birdie putt on the final hole, a 130-yard par three, secured her runner-up position.

"I was too tense in the earlier part of the round today. I had set high expectations for myself but couldn't deliver accordingly, which held me back from performing well. Fortunately, I managed to relax later on, so it turned out fine in the end," said the 23-year-old who graduated from Northwestern University in Illinois last year.

"Playing alongside Xu Ying in the final group, I felt she possesses exactly what I lack. She stayed highly focused and played exceptionally well. Typically, luck tends to favor a player like that. As for me, I struggled to adjust during the front nine, which led to falling quite far behind."
