BRISBANE, Australia (AP) — David Puig pulled away with a 5-under 66 for a two-shot victory Sunday in the Australian PGA Championship, joining Seve Ballesteros as the only Spanish winners.
In a final round at Royal Queensland that began with 31 players within six shots of the lead, Puig made a flurry of early birdies to seize control. He finished at 18-under 266 for his third professional title, winning by two shots over Wenyi Ding (66).
It was the first European tour title for Puig, who played his college golf at Arizona State. He previously won on the Asian Tour and LIV Golf.
Nick Voke of New Zealand made three birdies on the back nine for a 66 to tie for third with Marc Leishman (67). Anthony Quayle, who started the round tied with Puig, shot 73 and tied for 10th.
