He shot rounds of 63, 68, 70 and 69 to win the 28,800 euros first prize by two shots from Garrick Porteous (England), Switzerland's Joel Girrbach and Manuel Trappel (Austria).
Scott Henry from Glasgow finished tied 11th on 275 - five shots behind the winner. The top Scot had four very steady rounds of 69, 68, 69 and 69 and earned 3,420 euros.
