Bernd Wiesberger claims maiden European Tour victory

Bernd Wiesberger has won his first tournament on the European Tour by claiming the Ballantine's Championship in South Korea.

The Austrian, 26, started the final day with a five-shot lead and he never surrendered his advantage, birdieing three of the last four holes to end in style.

Scotland's Richie Ramsay hit a seven-under-par 65 to snatch second place but the day belonged to Wiesberger, who didn't drop a shot on his final 59 holes.

He said: "I just tried to enjoy it and I had the three best rounds of my life. I tried not to make bogeys and I did that pretty well, it was awesome."

Frenchman Victor Dubuisson and Australian Marcus Fraser shared third place.
