Bennett, fresh of helping her NSW team defend their Interstate Series titles, finished fifth, thanks to rounds of -1 (71), +2 (74) and even (72) for +1 overall, at the 30th Singapore Ladies Amateur Open Championship, from June 17-20, played at the Sentosa Golf Club.
"I was stoked with my result at Singapore," Bennett said.
"I did leave a few shots out there which was disappointing but that's golf - overall I was happy.
"I could definitely improve on my chipping but other than that everything was pretty good during the tournament.
"This result is definitely another good achievement, adding to what has been a successful season thus far, with hopefully more to come."
The St Michael's Golf Club star's next chance to add to her 2019 accolades will be at her three upcoming tournaments in South East Asia.
The 19-year-old's first port of call will be at the Royal Selangor Golf Club, Malaysia, from August 2-4, for the RSGC Ladies Amateur Open Championship.
This will be followed by the Malaysian Ladies Amateur at the Resort World Awana Golf Club (August 7-9) and Indonesian Amateur at Gading Raya Golf Club (August 13-16).
"My expectations going into the three tournaments would be just to stick to my processes, which will give me the best chance to score well and play my own game," the Mollymook Golf Club product said.
"Obviously I'd like to win one of the three but top five finish in all of them would be a big achievement.
"Victory at one of these would be a huge stepping stone for my career, possibly leading to invites to other big events around the world."
