Niklas Norgaard is finally a European tour winner at age 32. The final hour aged him at the British Masters. Norgaard had a four-shot lead until he botched three straight chip shots on the par-5 15th hole and made double bogey. But he held his nerve by making a 12-foot birdie putt on the 17th to stay two shots ahead.
SUTTON COLDFIELD, England — Niklas Norgaard held his nerve after botching three chip shots for a double bogey, finishing birdie-par for an even-par 72 and a two-shot victory Sunday in the British Masters.
He started the final round at The Belfry with a four-shot lead. Thriston Lawrence of South Africa closed to within one shot until a two-shot swing at the par-3 12th, when Norgaard made birdie and Lawrence took a bogey. Norgaard conceded to being nervous going after his first win — “I almost threw up at breakfast,” he said — but not on the double bogey.
