Dutch treat for maiden European tour winner Syme
Scotland's Connor Syme has won the Dutch Open, claiming his first title on the European tour. The 29-year-old went into Sunday's final round with a two-shot lead over playing partner Joakim Lagergren and maintained the same advantage despite a brilliant closing eagle from the Swede. Syme finished 11 under, shooting a one-under-par 70 on Sunday and making only one bogey in his final 38 holes. "Unbelievable, it was so, so difficult the last few days," said the Scot. "I just felt so much better this week, I felt really ready to do it, and I'm so, so happy I managed to do it." Wife Alanis flew out to Amsterdam to surprise Syme on the final green, where he also enjoyed champagne-drenched celebrations with compatriot Ewen Ferguson - who had a hole in one earlier in the day to help him finish in a tie for fourth - and England's Richard Mansell. "It's so, so nice they stuck around," said Syme. "I've obviously been really pleased for them and I'm really happy to have joined them and won myself, so just amazing. Amazing." Lagergren finished nine under, with South Africa's Jayden Schaper third on four under. Ferguson, fellow Scot Richie Ramsay and Englishman Jack Senior were a further shot back to share fourth.

Lauren Walsh and Canice Screene well placed ahead of Dutch Open finale
Kildare's Lauren Walsh will enter the final round of the Dutch Open just three shots off the lead as she chases a first-ever Ladies European Tour win. Walsh fired a second-round 54 in the three-day event to move to three-under par, three strokes behind leading trio Mimi Rhodes of England, Spain's Nuria Iturrioz and Italy's Alessia Nobilio who all sit on six-under par at Goyer Golf & Country Club. Also sitting inside the top 20 a further shot back is Canice Screene with the London-born Irish golfer posting her second round of 71. Anna Foster and Annabel Wilson both finished comfortably inside the cut-line and will be targeting high finishes as they start the final round on level par but Sara Byrne, who ended on five-over, missed the cut by a stroke with the damage done by Friday's 77. Joint leader Rhodes currently leads the Order of Merit on 1,046.88 points and admits this season has already exceeded expectations. "Not in a million years did I think this would be how my rookie season would go. The support has been incredible - so many people have reached out. It's given me a huge confidence boost heading into the bigger events. I'm just really happy."
