Wiesberger wins EPGA event in Korea

Bernd Wiesberger of Austria shot a four-under-par 68 to secure his maiden European Tour golf victory with a five-stroke win at the co-sanctioned Ballantine’s Championship in the South Korean capital on Sunday.

The 26-year-old Wiesberger made four birdies on his way to claiming the win to become only the third Austrian to win on the European Tour after Markus Brier and Martin Wiegele.

Wiesberger finished at 18-under, five strokes ahead of Richie Ramsay of Scotland, who shot a 65 to equal the course record on Sunday.

Victor Dubuisson, who had led after the first round, finished third alongside Australian Marcus Fraser who began the day in second place but shot 70.

Wiesberger went 55 holes without dropping a shot during the tournament, after making a double-bogey on the par-three 13th in his first round.
