Daniel Brown wins BMW International Open for 2nd European tour title

MUNICH (AP) — English golfer Daniel Brown captured his second European tour title by winning the BMW International Open by two strokes on Sunday after shooting a bogey-free 6-under 66 in the final round. The No. 170-ranked Brown started the day with a one-shot lead over countryman Jordan Smith, birdied four of his first six holes, and picked up two more birdies coming in. Advertisement The last was on the par-5 18th when Brown reached the green in two and two-putted to finish on 22-under par for the week. He was in tears as he walked off the green. The 30-year-old Brown's other win came at the ISPS Handa World Invitational last year. He hadn't had a top-10 finish since February at the Qatar Masters. Smith shot 67 and was alone in second place. ___ AP golf:

Pete Doherty plays in non-league football friendly

Pete Doherty was limited to five minutes on the pitch as he had to do a soundcheck at Dreamland [Margate FC] Musician Pete Doherty has made his non-league football debut as he led Margate FC out as captain in a friendly. The singer and guitarist for The Libertines, who sponsor Margate FC, signed for the club in order to take part in their match against Tonbridge Angels on Saturday. Advertisement Doherty, wearing the number 10 and a brown hat, played about five minutes before being subbed off to do a soundcheck at nearby Dreamland ahead of a concert the same day. Ricky Owen, Margate FC's chairman, said: "It was fantastic, probably better than any of us imagined when we started putting this together." Margate, who lost 3-2, welcomed about 600 spectators to the game. Doherty played in a brown hat throughout his five-minute cameo [Margate FC] Owen said: "I'm not sure we saw the best of his footballing skills, I'm not sure he had long enough to kind of show what he was about on that side of things, but apparently he was a player back in the day in his younger days. Advertisement "But it was a fantastic way to kick off our pre-season, something different for our supporters, a bit of fun for our first game and it seemed to go down really well." The Libertines, who became the main shirt sponsor for the club in 2018, also own a hotel in the area. Owen said: "The reaction on our socials, the reaction on The Libertines' socials, speaking to people at the ground yesterday, reports from our media team as well, it's just been positively received right across the board really." When asked if Doherty could play for the Isthmian League South East Division-club again, Mr Owen said: "Never say never. We'll see." Advertisement Follow BBC Kent on Facebook, on X, and on Instagram.
