It marked redemption for Clark, who narrowly missed out on a play-off spot in last year’s event. Reflecting on the win, he said:
“It feels amazing and a real honour to win such a prestigious event. I’m absolutely thrilled, as it’s our main event to play in as senior golfers.
“It’s nice to finish the job this year and have a decent lead down the last few holes. I’m really grateful to have been in that position.
“I played great on the first day. Round two, playing on the West Course, it needed a little more strategy. Today wasn’t the best start with a three-putt on the 2nd, but bouncing back with birdies at the 5th and 6th allowed me to create a lead and play sensibly down the stretch. I was really pleased with how I managed that.”
He also praised the host venue, adding:
“Moor Park is amazing. I love coming here as it really is an incredible place. Two challenging golf courses, which I think the scoring proved this week, but we’re made to feel so welcome. It’s just a pleasure to be here.”
