Eddie McCormack dedicated his European Senior Men’s Championship win to his father, Teddy, after a sensational two-shot win at Douglas Golf Club.

The Cavan native, who plays out of Galway Bay Golf Club, kept his cool down the home stretch to hold off the challenge of Alan Condren and, overnight leader, Jody Fanagan to register -6, in an Ireland dominated finish.
