Cowley makes her fourth appearance at the AIG Women’s Open, more than a decade on from her Championship debut at St Andrews in 2013.
A former Curtis Cup player and four-time winner on the Rose Ladies Series, she came close to a maiden title on the Ladies European Tour and LPGA Tour at last year’s co-sanctioned ISPS Handa World Invitational.
Cowley finished regulation play tied for first with Esther Henseleit and Alexa Pano, before the latter birdied the third extra hole to claim victory.
The runner-up finish helped Cowley secure a top-15 finish on the LET’s Race to Costa Del Sol for 2023, booking her place in the field for the AIG Women’s Open.
