272 strokes, 12 under par, finishing with 4 birdies in 5 holes. These are the extraordinary figures of an extraordinary victory by an extraordinary player: Edoardo Molinari - a Rudy Project testimonial - giving Italian golf a fantastic win at the Barclays Scottish Open in Loch Lomond (Glasgow).
At the age of 29, then, Molinari wins his first tournament on the European PGA circuit and does so with style and with full belief in himself. He battled like a lion against some of the top-ranking players in world golf. The end result is a well-deserved and spectacular first place, with the champ from Piedmont beating the exceptional Darren Clarke, in second place three shots behind, Raphael Jacquelin and Edoardo’s brother Francesco Molinari, who came an excellent fourth.
