Darren Clarke became only the fourth player to complete the Open-Senior Open double with a one-stroke victory over Pádraig Harrington at Gleneagles.

The 2011 Claret Jug winner shared a slender overnight lead with England’s Paul Broadhurst but when play was suspended for two hours because of heavy rain the Tyrone man was one clear playing the 14th.
