Coric takes maiden title:

Best of the Rest

Croatia’s Borna Coric saved five match points to defeat Germany’s Philipp Kohlschreiber 5-7, 7-6 (7/3), 7-5 on Sunday to clinch his maiden career title at Marrakech.

Coric, the 20-year-old world number 79, trailed 3-0 in the second set and 4-2 in the decider before he rallied to victory against the third-seeded Kohlschreiber, who was bidding for an eighth title.

Kerr wins Lotte Championship:

American Cristie Kerr capitalized on a back nine stumble by Jang Su-Yeong to come-from-behind and capture the Lotte Championship on Saturday.

The 39-year-old overcame a threeshot deficit heading into the final round to fire a bogey-free 66 for her first US LPGA Tour win since 2015.

“It’s been an epic day,” said Kerr, who finished with a 72 hole total score of 20-under par 268.

The same could not be said for unheralded Jang, who needed a sponsor’s invite to get into the tournament. (AFP) Molinari wins Euro title: Italy’s Edoardo Molinari won his third European Tour title and first since 2010 on Sunday by defeating Ireland’s Paul Dunne in a suddendeath play-off at the Trophee Hassan II in Morocco.

Both men finished tied on nine under par at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam for the four rounds before the more experienced Molinari, 36, triumphed over Dunne, who led by two shots overnight.

The 24-year-old Irishman and ranked 241 in the world, who shared the 54-hole lead in the 2015 Open at St Andrews while still an amateur, had been bidding for his first professional win. (AFP)
