Majestic Morrow conquers Europe

Adrian Morrow flew home from Austria yesterday on cloud nine after conquering a top class field to clinch the European Seniors Amateur Championship.

A stunning closing round of two under par 69 — the lowest score of the tournament — gave the Portmarnock star the crown to add to his Irish title won earlier in the year.

Morrow was a stroke adrift of Swede Tomas Persson going into the final round but overhauled his rival to triumph by one with an aggregate of 212 — one under par.
