Sergio Garcia went wire to wire to win the Omega Dubai Desert Classic, his 12th European Tour title. After an opening round 65, the 37-year-old Spaniard never trailed, finishing with a final round 3-under 69 to beat Sweden’s Henrik Stenson by 3 strokes.
Tyrrell Hatton, of England, and Denmark’s Lasse Jensen tied for 3rd at 14-under. Englishman Matthew Fitzpatrick and Peter Uihlein of the United States rounded out the top-5, both finishing at -12.
It was Garcia’s first win on the Euro Tour since the 2014 Commercial Bank Qatar Masters. The win moved Garcia back into the world top-10 – from 15 to number 9.
