Wiebe emerges from darkness

Mark Wiebe has won his first Senior Open Championship after he beat Bernhard Langer following five play-off holes at Royal Birkdale yesterday.

The duo resumed their battle for the title yesterday morning after organisers called a halt to proceedings on Sunday night after Langer and Wiebe halved two play-off holes played in near darkness.

Germany’s Langer fired a bogey at his fifth attempt on the 18th as Wiebe got down in two to find par and claim victory.
