SANTO DA SERRA, Madeira Islands (AP) — Ricardo Santos shot a 9-under 63 Sunday to win the Madeira Islands Open by four strokes, becoming the first Portuguese-born golfer to win on the European Tour in his home country.
Santos set a championship record of 22 under on the Santa da Serra course. Sweden’s Magnus Carlsson shot a 67 and was runner-up.
Santos, a former Challenge Tour graduate, earned a one-year tour exemption and an entry spot at the upcoming PGA Championship at Wentworth.
