ELLIE GIVENS brought the curtain down on a relatively successful 2015 by finishing just outside top 50 in the Omega Dubai Ladies Masters.

The Hurworth pro, attached to Rockliffe Hall, could not find the form to climb into the upper echelons on the leaderboard but she was already assured of a Tour card for next year regardless of her display at the Emirates Golf Club.

Givens did make the cut but her final two rounds of 73, one over, were only enough to finish tied 53rd on six over and earn 1,700 euros.

She will now enjoy Christmas before heading Down Under to prepare for another year on the Ladies European Tour schedule.
