Round 4 Final
Victor Dubuisson kept his cool in the face of a high-profile chasing pack to earn his first professional victory amid Henrik Stenson just staying top of the Race To Dubai standings at the Turkish Airlines Open by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
Despite France’s Dubuisson heading into the final round with a five-shot lead, there were many that believed he would succumb to the pressure of having the likes of Ian Poulter, Tiger Woods, Justin Rose and Henrik Stenson hot on his heels.
He dispelled those beliefs with a masterful performance that belied his tender years, picking up the title and subsequent €848,930 prize on the back of a near-flawless 69.
While the 23 year old's victory represented a worthy story in itself, the Race standings quickly came into focus, too, with The European Tour’s season finale just days away.
It is still Stenson, aiming to top the money lists on both sides of the Atlantic following his FedEx Cup triumph, who leads the way following his seventh-placed finish.
He holds around a 214,000-point lead over Rose, with Poulter sitting just behind in fourth having ended this event joint sixth

Round 4 Final
In the final round of the The McGladrey Classic at Sea Island Golf Club, Chris Kirk shot a 4-under 66 to win his second PGA TOUR event, earning 500 FedExCup points
Tied for the lead in The McGladrey Classic, Kirk was on the other side of the 18th fairway trying to envision an approach that would cover the flag and set up a birdie chance for the win. Those plans changed when Baird, with the ball below his feet in a fairway bunker, topped a 4-iron and watched his ball roll 90 yards and into a hazard. Baird is now 0-for-365 in his PGA TOUR career, and it looked for the longest time that he finally would win.
Kirk played for par, closed with a 4-under 66 for a one-shot victory, and became the first player from Sea Island to win The McGladrey Classic
