He promptly went 8-under through his first 12 holes, en route to a closing 9-under 63 at El Cardonal at Diamante and a 24-under winning total. Justin Lower and Carson Young finished one stroke back.

The 39-year-old Englishman had taken control of the event with a course-record 61 at Yas Links on Friday but saw his five-shot halfway lead reduced to one as he posted a 73 a day later.

Ryo Ishikawa endeared himself to the passionate crowd again as they gathered to witness another triumph by the once ‘Bashful Prince’ who clinched the Mitsui Sumitomo VISA Taiheiyo Masters with a final round three-under-par 67 on Sunday.

The huge galleries at the Taiheiyo Club Gotemba Course gave him another rousing ovation as he outplayed Hideto Tanihara and Riki Kawamoto by one shot to capture his 20th JGTO title and his second victory this season with his winning total of 11-under-par 269.
