MOOSMANN EYES SECOND WIN IN SWITZERLAND

Switzerland’s Elena Moosmann hopes for a second win as she returns to the site of her solo victory on the Ladies European Tour Access Series (LETAS).

The 21-year-old won the then called 2019 VP Bank Ladies Open as an amateur where she tied first with fellow Austrian amateur Isabella Helper.

“I am hoping to return to the great form I had in 2019,” Moosmann said, “That year was amazing, to win it again would be really cool.

“That year was a blur, I just played and then I won it. It came as a surprise. I didn’t really understand the format then, but if you just play your game, you will be fine. It’s mostly a good idea to go out and have fun.”

The young Swiss star is currently having a strong start to the season ranking ninth on the LETAS Order of Merit with 190.00 points.

The season can only be described as consistent for Moosmann after she placed seventh position at the first two tournaments.

“I feel like I have had a solid start to the season,” Moosmann said, “It could always go better but that’s the thing with golf. I am happy about it.

“To win in Switzerland would be indescribable, I would really love it, I hope for the win again.”

Now back at Werdenberg Golf Course again following a four week break in the LETAS schedule, Moosmann is happy to return to tournament play at a course she knows all too well.

The Swiss player has produced some strong results on this course after her 2019 win, placing third in 2021 and eighth last year.

“I am very excited for this week, it’s always exciting to play at home,” Moosmann said. “I have always had  great experiences in Gams, I love it here.

“I know the course well, having played it for some years now, in total I’ve probably played it around six times.

“I am confident going into the qualifier, I have had some good practice weeks, I’m looking forward to playing a tournament again, it was a long gap and I love playing tournaments.

“Since Terre Blanche, I have been practicing at home a lot, on the course as well, if it was open because of the rain. I have also played with friends to have fun and competition as well.

“I feel like I have had a solid start to the season, it could always go better but that’s the thing with golf. I am happy about it.

Moosmann is the only past champion teeing it up at this years event which sees a different format being played.

For it 10th anniversary, the competition will see two days of stroke play and a last day of 3×9 hole match play.
