Irish eyes are smiling as Paul shoots low to close out the Hi5 Pro Tour Altorreal Winter Series Tour final.

The 65 consisted of an impressive 8 birdies , 1 bogey and 9 pars . Paul was so pleased to secure the win in such a manner as this was his lowest ever final 18 round score of his professional playing career to date .

Close behind just one shot adrift were Iceland’s Stefan Mar Stefansson and Spain’s Ignacio Sanchez Palencia who both fought hard to get their scores into the Clubhouse at -8 in order to force a playoff with Paul. Elliott Saltman tried his best to make it a hat trick of wins for the family Saltman with a fine 66 on the final day eventually finishing in tied 5th spot.

Low amateur this week was England’s Richard Carter and low Senior this week was once again Englands Gary Wolstenholme who also finished a creditable tied 8th against the main field.

Thanks go to all the team at Altorreal for making the tour once again so welcome and presenting its course in such fine playing conditions.

The Tour now takes a small “ time out ” but is in the process of securing venues for the coming seasons schedule which all players will be notified of shortly . The Hi5 Pro Tour wishes to extend its thanks to all venues and sponsors for their continued support over this last winter  and of course the superb support we have received from our Pro Tour playing members in helping us establish one of Europe’s finest developmental tours.

All Hi5 Pro Tour staff and sponsors wish all of our players great success during the coming season on their respective tours and hope to see lots of Hi5 ´s being used whilst closing out wins all over the globe.
