AQABA, Jordan: Meghan MacLaren was denied a place in golfing history on Saturday (Apr 6) by Dutchman Daan Huizing who overhauled the overnight leader to claim the Jordan Mixed Open by two shots on Saturday.

The 23-year-old Briton went into the final day of the first tournament to see male and female players competing for the same prize on the same course atop the leaderboard after a second consecutive round of 65 on Friday.
