Spanish Open: Angel Hidalgo beat Jon Rahm in play-off to win first title

“Two or three years ago, I was on the first tee, in the trees, supporting Jon. Without playing, I just came here to Madrid to see the tournament,” said Marbella-born Hidalgo, whose only other professional title came on the Challenger Tour in 2021.

“To be here and win the tournament is unreal. Oh, my gosh, it’s amazing.”

Scotland’s Grant Forrest hit nine birdies in his seven-under 64 to move into a six-way tie for third place, alongside England’s Joe Dean and Tommy Fleetwood.

Sweden’s Jens Fahrbring and the United States’ Sean Crocker also finished on 10 under, as did Spain’s David Puig, who looked set to challenge for the title after four birdies in his opening seven holes, but fell away with five bogeys to finish with a 71.
