The Celtic Manor Wales Open

Denmark’s Jeppe Huldahl held off Niclas Fasth and Ignacio Garrido to secure his maiden European Tour title at The Celtic Manor Wales Open.

26-year-old Huldahl, who held the joint lead overnight, produced a nerveless display on the final day of the competition without dropping a shot on his way to an excellent 67 and an aggregate score of nine under.

Oliver Fisher carded an excellent 67, the 20-year-old birdieing the 9th, 10th & 11th before eagling the 18th to move to five under overall.

Alongside Fisher on five under were Richard Green and Jeev Milkha Singh, who both posted 69s, and Simon Dyson, who shot 70.

With the European Open at the London Golf Club Ollie’s first result since missing the cut on 6 of his last outings, this was a significant achievement for him, providing his first top 10 place for the season. Having split with coach Chris Jenkins earlier this year, it looked like our Ollie’s season was taking a turn for the worse.
