Dutchwoman Anne Van Dam has claimed a second successive Andalucia Costa del Sol Open de Espana title, with Australia's Sarah Kemp tying for 10th.

Van Dam carded a final-round 70 to finish 13-under par on Sunday, a shot ahead of India's Aditi Ashok and Denmark's Nanna Koerstz Madsen, who led the field until a final-hole double-bogey at Aloha Golf Club in Marbella.

Van Dam rolled in a two-foot putt to seal victory, her second of the 2019 European Tour season after taking the Canberra Classic.

NSW's Kemp finished six under after a final-round 68, tied with Finland's Sanna Nuutinen and Nuria Iturrioz.

Fellow Aussie Whitney Hillier also fired a 68 to end two shots behind Kemp, tied for 13th with Ireland's Leona Maguire and Germany's Karolin Lampert.
