Brian Harman held his nerve in the final round to finish six shots clear and land his first major. After a couple of early bogeys in very wet conditions and the pack only three shots behind he regained his composure and finished strongly.
The LMS leaderboard was a lot closer and we finish the year with a six way split pot. Paddy Murray, Andrew Dixon, Sam Duckworth, Adam Lynch, Olivia Seddon and Paul Buoey will share our biggest ever prize pot of £11,600. They will each receive £1,933, not a bad return off a tenner!
