Andalucia Masters: Julien Guerrier beats Jorge Campillo at ninth extra play-off to claim maiden DP World Tour win | Golf News
Julien Guerrier claimed his maiden DP World Tour title in his 230th event after coming through a marathon play-off to earn a dramatic win at the Estrella Damm N.A Andalucia Masters.
Guerrier went into the final round tied for the lead at Real Club de Golf Sotogrande, where he mixed five birdies with a bogey and a double-bogey on his way to a two-under 70.
The Frenchman looked set to see his wait for a DP World Tour breakthrough continue until playing partner Jorge Campillo bogeyed two of his last four holes to also finish on 21 under, with both players then making pars on each of the first eight play-off holes.
The pair returned to the par-four 18th for a ninth extra hole, equalling the longest play-off in DP World Tour history, where a par for Guerrier – after Campillo made bogey – was enough to snatch an emotional victory.
