Scot Law wins his first European Tour title

SPORTS

ABERDEEN’S David Law produced a spectacular finish to overhaul Wade Ormsby and win his first European Tour title at the ISPS Handa Vic Open in Geelong, Australia.

Law was three shots behind as he stood on the 16th tee but made a birdie there and then produced a stunning second to eight feet on the par-five 18th to set up an eagle.

That put him in a share of the lead with Ormsby at 18 under and, when Ormsby made a doublebogey on the 17th, he needed an eagle of his own on the last to force a play-off.

He could only birdie it so Law won by one shot.

PHIL Mickelson was closing in on a fifth win at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in California when play was suspended due to darkness.

The American, who started the final round at Pebble Beach three shots back, ended with a threeshot lead with two holes left to play.
