What a finale with Italy's best golfer Francesco Molinari (65) out playing Masters Champion and Ryder Cup rookie Danny Willett (66) to win the Italian Open in Milan,
becoming the first Italian to win his national Open twice since the event became part of the European Tour in 1972.
The 2006 champion also became the first Italian to win any European Tour event twice as he claimed his fourth win and his first since the 2012 Reale Seguros Open de España in 2012.

The Web.com playoffs second leg wrapped up with a win for Micheal Thompson who shot a pair of 64s on the weekend finishing at -23 261 for a three-stroke victory over Argentina’s Miguel Angel Carballo and securing his PGA Tour card for next year.

PGA Tour Champions Nature Valley First Tee Open http://www.pgatour.com/champions/tournaments/nature-valley-first-tee-open-at-pebble-beach/leaderboard.html
If you are a Brit, your ears perked up when you saw veteran English journeyman Paul Broadhurst continue the fine play that won him the British Senior Open in July finishing with a -4 68 for a one-stroke victory over Bernhard Langer and Kevin Sutherland on the storied Pebble Beach links.
His win at Carnoustie was the biggest of his life, coming at the age of 51, now full of confidence here he is with the trophy and full exemption on the Champions Tour for next year, all good for a guy who's son told people in the local supermarket before his Senior Open win, "this is my dad, he used to be a pretty good golfer !"
Canadian Scores : Stephen Ames 69 70 71 -5 T10, Rod Spittle 73 73 70 +1 T36
