Law claims a first European Tour victory

-

SCOTLAND’S David Law produced a spectacula­r finish to overhaul longtime leader Wade Ormsby and win his first European Tour title at the ISPS Handa Vic Open.

Law was three shots behind as he stood on the 16th tee at 13th Beach Golf Club, 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 the home favourite made a double-bogey on the 17th, he needed an eagle of his own on the last to force a play-off.

The 38-year-old gave himself a putt from the fringe for a three but could only make birdie.
