Thomas Pieters of Belgium won the Portugal Masters by two strokes on Sunday after a final-round three-under-par 68. It was his seventh European Tour victory.

The 29-year-old was tied for first place with France’s Matthieu Pavon heading into the final round at the Dom Pedro Victoria Golf Course in Vilamoura, but started with a bogey on the first hole before recovering with an eagle on the fifth.

This Women’s Open feels grander than ever as Muirfield prepares to make history.

He made birdies before and after the turn, then made another bogey, but gained a stroke on the penultimate hole to end the tournament at 19-under.

Pavon scored three birdies on the front nine, but a triple bogey on the 12th caused him to settle for a 70 and a tie for second place with Danes Lucas Bjerregaard and Nicolai Hojgaard at 17-under total.

“It feels wonderful,” Pieters stated, referring to his win in the Czech Masters in 2019. “It seemed like a long time between triumphs, but (caddie) Adam Marrow and I put in so much effort, and it felt right.

“I was having some trouble with my swing, and I wasn’t trusting it as much as I had been the first three days. I was preoccupied with that rather than the scores. I took a look at some of the boards and noticed that we were possibly leading by one.

“After it ping-ponged back and forth, I was ecstatic to come out with a two-shot lead.”

Pieters’ victory vaulted him back into the top 100 in the world and guaranteed him a spot in the season-ending DP World Tour Championship in Dubai.
