The Cleveland Golf/Srixon Scottish Senior Open at Fairmont St Andrews way hailed a success as 53 year old Glenn Ralph clinched his first European Senior Tour victory. Srixon’s Carl Mason, a Z-Star Ball player came in a respectable 5th, finishing 4 under.
Of his win, Ralph said “It’s unbelievable – I could have cried on the last hole,” he continued “It was too emotional to talk about. I was just trying to keep it under control.
This marks the biggest win of his career and for his efforts at The Cleveland Golf/Srixon Scottish Senior Open Glenn Ralph pocketed cool €39,353 in prize money.
“Any victory would have been big – I just wanted to win. I’ve never won on Tour in my life. I’ve been close enough times but couldn’t quite find it. I just felt better today – I don’t know why.
“I felt calmer until I got on the last green when it went a bit wobbly there. What a great place to get my first victory though – the Home of Golf. It couldn’t be better.”
