Brazel’s first Euro title

AUSTRALIA’S Sam Brazel birdied the 18th hole to narrowly edge Rafa Cabrera Bello to capture the Hong Kong Open yesterday, his first title on the European Tour.

Ranked 480th in the world, Brazel plays on the Asian Tour and had never had a top-10 European Tour finish before. The win gives him automatic entry into European Tour events for the next two years. “I’d love to come over to Europe. It would be a great privilege,” an emotional Brazel said. “It feels amazing. I’m speechless. What a win!”

Brazel shot a 68 for an overall total of 13-under 267.

Cabrera Bello, who had a double bogey on the par-3 8th hole, shot a 69 and finished a stroke back.
