Reflecting on her win, Evans said:
"It's surreal, I'm a bit shocked actually. It's amazing as it's something I've always wanted to win and I've been close a couple of times. It feels really good."
Evans recalled the tense play-off sequence: after parring the first hole, she birdied the second, followed by another par on the third. Then, on the fourth attempt, she calmly rolled in a striking 35-footer for birdie.
"I just wanted to stay calm. I had a bad patch in round one where I made a triple and a couple of bogeys and I panicked a little bit. Today I came out and I just wanted to be calm and play my game. I knew it was going to be a bit tougher today with the wind swirling in different directions so I just wanted to make plenty of pars. I had to be patient."
