Celine Boutier sets records with recent wins at Evian Championship and Scottish Open

Boutier was ecstatic with her performance, and she herself did not expect to win back-to-back tournaments. Boutier said (via Golf Digest):

"It's completely crazy. I would have never imagined that I would be able to win not one, but two tournaments in a row, and yeah, I'm just incredibly in shock. Yeah, I don't think I know what to say or what to think. I think it's just completely out of control. I'm not sure what to think."

With her win at the Scottish Open, Boutier has now won three tournaments this year. This has made her the golfer with the most victories in the 2023 LPGA Tour season.

Along with her win this week, she also made history at the Amundi Evian Championship. Celine Boutier not only won her very first major tournament but also did it in front of her home crowd. On winning the tournament, she said:

"Honestly, it has been my biggest dream ever since I started watching golf. This tournament has always been very special to me, just even watching as a teenager. To be able to hold this trophy is pretty unbelievable."

She became the first-ever Frenchwoman to win the Evian Championship, as the major celebrated its decade anniversary. Next week, the LPGA Tour moves on to the AIG Women's Open.
