Kyron Sullivan wins Celtic Pro
Tour Championship
European Touring professional Kyron Sullivan (vale-hotel.com) lifted the Celtic Pro Tour Championship at the Old Course, Marriott St Pierre on Wednesday.
The win was the second on the Tour this year for the Barry-born 32-year-old, following his victory in the South Wales Open at Southerndown Golf Club in July.
A first round of three under par 68 on Monday set the tone for the week, and the score was never bettered.
A level-par round of 71 on day two was followed by a final round of 76 in freezing conditions, which was enough to land him the £2,000 first prize and Championship trophy.
Sullivan finished on two over par after the 54 holes, two strokes ahead of four players tied in second place - Llewellyn Matthews (Southerndown), Matthew Dearden (vale-hotel.com), Lee Corfield (Burnham & Berrow) and Glyn Bateman (Royal Eastbourne), who all finished on four over par for the tournament, each picking up cheques for £462.50, after sharing the 2nd to 5th placed prize money.
Ryan Thomas (Aberdare) was a further stroke behind in fifth place to win a £200 share of the purse, while Iwan Griffiths (Aberdare) won the voucher as top amateur in the field.
Adam Constable (Cardiff) who finished 9th at the Chepstow course, secured the Red Bull Celtic Pro Tour Order of Merit, after an impressive season of consistent finishes, including a win at the South West Wales Open at Pennard Golf Club in April.
