CELEBRATION - Styal’s David Horsey won his first major professional title.
Victorious Horsey hits the top ten
25/ 6/2008
GOLF: Styal star David Horsey was in celebratory mood after winning his first major professional title as he took the Telenet Trophy in Belgium on the European Challenge Tour.
The win moved the 22-year-old into the top 10 on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit and keeps him on track to make the full European Tour in 2009.
Horsey carded rounds of 67, 66, 68 and 68 for a 19-under par total of 269.
He went into the final par-five hole needing a birdie to win and, after his second shot hit the green, he two-putted to take the 22,400 euros top prize.
Brilliant
Horsey said: "It’s a brilliant feeling, although I struggled a bit on the final round.
"I was nervous before playing the final approach shot but kept it together and was delighted to have two putts for the title.
"I’m now ready for the next Challenge Tour event and can’t wait for the rest of the season."
