Parry claims maiden win

England’s John Parry – a team-mate of Rory McIlroy in the 2007 Walker Cup - today became the third rookie to win on this season’s European Tour.

A Challenge Tour graduate like Rhys Davies and John Morrison, the 23-year-old from Harrogate won the Vivendi Trophy at Golf de Joyenval in Paris by two shots from Swede Johan Edfors.
