From two aces to an incredible hole-out eagle, the BMW International Open did not disappoint in terms of producing memorable moments.
Champion Henrik Stenson and Sergio Garcia were among those who managed to tame Golf Club Gut Lärchenhof, helped by some of the standout shots of the season so far. We have picked out three of the best examples of how to master the Pulheim venue...
How to…hole-out for eagle
Jaco Van Zyl’s wait for a first European Tour title will not last much longer if some of his shot-making in Germany is anything to go by. The South African took aim at the 12th pin from 217 yards on Friday and arrived on the 13th tee with an eagle to his name.
How to…manage the bunkers
En route to securing his second BMW International Open title, Stenson produced some spectacular shots. Among the most important was this sumptuous splash out from the sand as the Swede came down the final stretch on Sunday.
How to…make a hole in one
Garcia and Richie Ramsay will remember this year’s tournament most fondly for their expertise on the par threes on Friday. While the Spaniard’s accuracy was spot on from the 11th tee, the latter made an ace from even further out on the 194-yard 16th hole. Bravo, gentlemen.
