Zuzana Kamasová (born 14 May 1978) is a Slovakian professional golfer. She won the Lalla Meryem Cup in 2011 to become the first Slovakian and Eastern European to win on the Ladies European Tour.[1]

Career

[edit]

Kamasová won the Slovakian Championship seven times and represented her country at the Espirito Santo Trophy three times, 2000 in Germany, 2002 in Malaysia, 2004 in Puerto Rico.[2]

Kamasová earned limited status on the LET at Q-School in November 2004, and turned professional. Between 2004 and 2007 she only made two cuts, but in 2008 she earned her first top-10 finish at the Suzhou Taihu Ladies Open in China, T9 and 10 strokes behind winner Annika Sörenstam.[3]

With limited LET starts available Kamasová also played on the Swedish Golf Tour, losing a playoff to Florence Lüscher of Switzerland at the 2007 Rejmes Ladies Open, but prevailing in a playoff at the 2007 Telia Ladies Finale for her first professional title. She also finished runner-up at the 2009 VW Söderbergs Ladies Masters, two strokes behind Daniela Holmqvist.[4]

In 2011 Kamasová won the Lalla Meryem Cup in Morocco, two strokes clear of the competition, to become the first Slovakian and Eastern European to secure a victory on the LET.[1] She appeared at the 2011 Women's British Open but did not make the cut.[4]

She retired from tour after the 2013 season.
