England's Melissa Reid led from start to finish to clinch the Turkish Airlines Ladies Open title.

Reid shot a closing 73 at Carya Golf Club in Belek to finish 11 under par, four clear of France's Gwladys Nocera.

English veteran Laura Davies, 51, ended in a tie for third with Scottish pair Kylie Walker and Sally Watson.

"When you win you want to win properly and to lead every single day has been nice," said Reid, 27, after winning her fifth Ladies European Tour title.

"I've not been in that position before, so to win in that way does make it extra special."
