Woad took a three-shot lead into the final day at Maketewah Country Club and made a fast start after two birdies in her first five holes, only to give hpoe to the chasing pack with a double-bogey at the par-four sixth.
The Englishwoman took advantage of the par-five next and cancelled out a bogey at the 13th with a birdie at the 17th, with a one-under 69 enough to hold off the chasing pack and register her first win of the season.

Woad finished on 12 under ahead of Haeran Ryu, who charged into contention with five birdies in a seven-hole stretch during her final-round 67, while AIG Women's Open champion Miyu Yamashita ended three strokes back in third ahead of China's Ruoning Yin.
"Obviously very, very happy and grateful," Woad said after her win. This one is definitely a little sweeter than the first one [ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open], because I wasn't really expecting that. This one I've seen how good everyone is out there, so it's good to win again."
Former world No 1 Jin Young Ko charged up the leaderboard with a five-under 65 to share fifth spot with Amanda Doherty, with Jeeno Thitikul dropping to seventh place after back-to-back 69s over the weekend.
World No 1 Nelly Korda shared eighth place after a three-under 67, with Lydia Ko also on five under following a closing 71, as defending champion Charley Hull closed her tied-40th finish with a two-under 68.
