Reitan wins Soudal Open in playoff for first European tour title
ANTWERP, Belgium (AP) --- Norwegian golfer Kristoffer Reitan captured his first
European tour title by making birdie at the second playoff hole to win the
Soudal Open at the expense of Ewen Ferguson and Darius van Driel on Sunday.
Going out early in the final round, the No. 278-ranked Reitan shot a 9-under 62
to post the clubhouse target at 13 under.
Van Driel, ranked No. 331, shot 67 to join Reitan in the lead but the No.
186-ranked Ferguson looked like taking his fourth European tour title as he
went down the last with a one-stroke lead.
However, his par putt lipped out to push him into a three-way playoff, which
took place on No. 18.
The trio all made par the first time but Reitan rolled in a birdie putt from 15
feet for the win after Ferguson and Van Driel had made par.
