Julien Sale produziu a rodada da semana para vencer o Grand Final da HotelPlanner Tour em Maiorca, enquanto Hamish Brown segurou o segundo lugar — e com ele o título da Road to Mallorca na temporada.
Sale já tinha o cartão do DP World Tour garantido antes da final. Ele fechou com um segundo 65 para terminar 22 abaixo do par, quatro tacadas à frente, e encerra a temporada em segundo no ranking. Apenas quatro franceses haviam vencido esta prova antes dele: Clément Sordet, Benjamin Hebert, Mike Lorenzo-Vera e Nicolas Joakimides.
O jogador de 29 anos liderava por uma tacada na virada do dia e fez quatro birdies nos primeiros nove buracos do Club de Golf Alcanada. Ganhou outro no par-5 do 12, devolveu um com seu único bogey do dia e então embolsou três birdies nos últimos seis buracos para conquistar a segunda vitória da temporada na HotelPlanner Tour, depois do Le Vaudreuil Golf Challenge, na França.
“Chegando esta semana, eu não tinha muito estresse porque sabia que estava entre os 15 primeiros e o objetivo era vencer o torneio e, obviamente, tentar terminar em primeiro no ranking”, disse Sale. “Eu já ia me divertir hoje à noite, mas agora vou aproveitar ainda mais com a minha família aqui.”
Brown, de 27 anos, é o quinto dinamarquês a liderar o ranking, juntando-se a Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen, Marcus Helligkilde, Joachim B Hansen e Thomas Bjørn. Um 67 final o levou a 18 abaixo do par, e ele ficou sozinho em segundo quando o putt de birdie de MJ Daffue passou raspando no 72º buraco.
“Significa muito”, disse Brown. “Tem sido uma labuta de verdade outra vez. No fim, não pude vencer hoje por causa de um bom francês que jogou extremamente bem.” Ele acrescentou que a semana lhe deu confiança após uma primeira temporada difícil no DP World Tour, e que não tem medo do que vem a seguir.
Atrás deles, Lars van der Vight terminou em terceiro na classificação, Christofer Blomstrand em quarto e Daffue em quinto.
