It was the 38th Women's British Open, and the 14th as a major championship on the LPGA Tour. It was the sixth Women's British Open at Royal Birkdale, the most recent was four years earlier in 2010. ESPN and BBC Sport televised the event from Royal Birkdale. Mo Martin won her first major, one shot ahead of runners-up Shanshan Feng and Suzann Pettersen. Martin led after 36 holes at 138 (−6) after consecutive rounds of 69, but fell three shots back with a 77 (+5) on Saturday, tied with six others for seventh place. An hour ahead of the final pair on a clear and breezy Sunday, she shot even par, capped by an eagle at the final hole. Her second shot from the fairway on the par 5 nearly holed out for an albatross (double eagle); it rolled onto the green and struck the flagstick, stopping six feet (1.8 m) away. She sank the putt and waited for the others to finish, preparing for a potential playoff. It was Martin's first win on the LPGA Tour,https://www.espn.com/golf/story/_/id/11210006/mo-martin-wins-women-british-open-eagle-18 ESPN Associated Press Mo Martin wins British Open 13 July 2014 14 July 2014https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2014/jul/13/mo-martin-wins-womens-british-open Mo Martin wins Women’s British Open to cap a Cinderella story 13 July 2014 Guardian 14 July 2014 and moved her from 99 to 26 in the women's world rankings.http://www.lpga.com/golf/blogs/2014/7/rolex-move-ricoh-martin.aspx LPGA Rolex Rankings Move of the Week: Mo Martin 14 July 2014 14 July 2014 Field The field for the tournament was set at 144, and most earned exemptions based on past performance on the Ladies European Tour, the LPGA Tour, previous major championships, or with a high ranking in the Women's World Golf Rankings. The rest of the field earned entry by successfully competing in qualifying tournaments open to any female golfer, professional or amateur, with a low handicap. There were 16 exemption categories for the 2014 Women's British Open.http://www.lgu.org/EZ/lgu/lgu/RWBO.php?CShip=172&CPage=conditions&PHPSESSID=na7rg4tbi4jtvpt7oh04b1aht0 https://web.archive.org/web/20140416181527/http://www.lgu.org/EZ/lgu/lgu/RWBO.php?CShip=172&CPage=conditions&PHPSESSID=na7rg4tbi4jtvpt7oh04b1aht0 dead 16 April 2014 2014 Ricoh Women's British Open – Competition Entry Details Ladies' Golf Union 14 April 2014http://www.letscoring.com/entries/68217 Ricoh Women's British Open – Tournament Entry List Ladies European Tour 19 June 2014 24 September 2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20140924042620/http://www.letscoring.com/entries/68217 dead The top 15 finishers (and ties) from the 2013 Women's British Open.
