Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen drained a lengthy putt at the 72nd hole to get the better of home hero, Cameron Smith, at the Crown Australian Open.
Earning his first victory on the DP World Tour, the one-under-par final round of 70 was enough to get the Dane over the line, as he earned a deserved win at Royal Melbourne.

A Ping staffer, the 26-year-old had a full bag of the brand’s clubs in play for the tournament, using the G440 range in his driver and fairway woods, as well as the i240 irons, new S259 wedges and a PLD Milled Oslo 3 prototype putter.
