Shannon Burke (Ballinrobe) capped off a superb season with her third championship victory, firing a course record-equalling 69 (-5) to win the Munster Over-18 Women’s Senior Amateur Open Championship at Castletroy Golf Club.

Already crowned Leinster and Connacht Over 18 Senior Champion earlier this year, Burke arrived at the Limerick course in fine form and got off to a strong start with three birdies and a bogey on the front nine to make the turn at two under par.
