Derbyshire's Melissa Reid says she is even more determined to win her first Ladies European title after narrowly missing out at the English Open.

Reid, from Breadsall, carded a final round of 69 to finish runner-up to Rebecca Hudson by one shot in blustery conditions in Oxfordshire.

The 20-year-old, who missed a birdie on the 17th to level, said: "I'm pretty gutted right now.

"But I've got to stay patient and maybe the win will come pretty soon."

Reid was the overnight leader but Hudson came from four shots behind to take the title.

"I can't take anything away from Rebecca's 64," Reid said. "In these conditions it was phenomenal.

"I still made a couple of mistakes, which I want to erase. But I'm learning all the time and this was a great challenge in all the conditions."
