Dubuisson beats Jaco to win Turkish Open
Updated | By Sky Sport
Victor Dubuisson broke down in tears after producing a brilliant finish to win the Turkish Airlines Open for the second time in three years, as Rory McIlroy's challenge fizzled out in Antalya.
Dubuisson played his last eight holes in five under par to card a closing 66 and finish one ahead of South Africa's Jaco Van Zyl, while world No 3 McIlroy ended in a tie for sixth after a frustrating final round 71.
The Frenchman, whose sole win to date came in the inaugural staging of this event in 2013, had carded three birdies in the first four holes, only to lie three strokes off the pace after running up a double bogey on the fifth and also drop a shot on the seventh.
Déjà vu! 🏆
