Thomas Bjørn takes season finale on Legends Tour | Golf-world – Gulf News

“A four shot lead is a weird one… you don’t really know what to expect…I thought it I get to -20 then someone will have to shoot 63 to challenge me and I thought that if they did that then they’d deserve to win…. I was trying (today) just not to make bogies… I didn’t have that many expectations coming in here, but I got here and I saw the golf course well, I took advantage of the par f ves; here they give you great opportunities on the par f ves especially yesterday… they gave me a lot of freedom on this golf course not to be aggressive with everything else and I think the par f ves played into my hands this week and I took good care of them”

Bjørn was -12 on the par f ves this week. Order of Merit leader James Kingston was Bjørn's nearest challenger at -13.

LEGENDS TOUR END OF SEASON AWARDS:

T e John Jacobs Trophy for the Order of Merit winner

James Kingston secured the Legends Tour Order of Merit and scooped the John Jacob Trophy on the f nal day of the season despite an early wobble in Mauritius. T e South African had a tough opening day round of 74 at Constance Belle Mare Plage, but recovered to shoot 65 and 64 and f nish 2nd. Kingston’s mission at the season ending MCB Tour Championship was simple; he had to f nish the tournament, or if Adilson Da Silva won he had to come better than a tie for fourth. T e South African was relieved he f nished the season on a high.
