DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Rafael Cabrera-Bello held his nerve against a star-studded field Sunday to win the Dubai Desert Classic, shooting a 4-under 68 to beat Lee Westwood and Stephen Gallacher by one shot for his second European Tour victory.
Westwood and Gallacher could have forced a playoff in the windy conditions but both players missed their birdie putts on the 18th. That brought a groan from the packed gallery but a broad smile from the No. 119-ranked Spaniard, who got on the phone to share the news of his victory with his parents and girlfriend back home in the Canary Islands.
“It’s been a really, really special week for me,” Cabrera-Bello said as he accepted the trophy. “I played great the entire week. With so many big names up there, I really felt proud of myself.”
