Statement on behalf of The European Tour

It is with great sadness and deep regret that we report the untimely passing of caddie Iain McGregor during play on the final day of the Madeira Islands Open – Portugal – BPI.

Everyone at The European Tour extends our deepest sympathies to the friends and family of Iain at this time.

Following consultation with the players and caddies involved, however, it has been decided that play should continue and the tournament should finish.

A minute’s silence has taken place at the clubhouse and play resumed at 6.00pm local time.

All administration will be taken care of by The European Tour and we will help in any way possible.
