The World No.329 punched the air and roared with delight after holing a par putt from 10 feet at the last hole at the course near Liverpool on Sunday.

He shot a three-under 69 to finish on 14-under 274 overall, earning his first title since the Trophee Hassan II seven years ago.

Englishman Paul Waring, who led after the first two rounds, shot 70 and was alone in second place.

Five players were tied for third place another shot back – Swedish pair Marcus Kinhult (67) and Robin Petersson (68), Dutchman Daan Huizing (69), Scotland's Grant Forrest (70) and France's Julien Guerrier (72).

Guerrier had led by one shot heading into the final round as he sought his first professional win.

Jarryd Felton, Australia's lone cut survivor in the tournament, ended with a level-par 72 to finish at one-under in a tie for 52nd.
