In a thrilling conclusion that left fans on the edge of their seats, Greg Owen clinched the MCB Mauritius Legends title with a dramatic closing birdie, proving that experience and nerves of steel can still triumph in the high-pressure world of professional golf. But here’s where it gets controversial. Was it Owen’s skill or his competitor’s missteps that sealed his victory? Let’s dive into the details. England’s Greg Owen delivered a clutch performance on the 18th hole at Constant Belme Plage, edging out Jeieve Mila Singh and Darren Fitchard by a single stroke to claim his first Legends Tur title in the 2025 season finale. Owen’s final round was a roller coaster of emotions. After cruising to 20 under par through 14 holes with nine birdies, he stumbled with a double bogey on the 15th thanks to a for putt and a bogey on the 17th. These errors combined with Mila Singh’s birdie on the 18th meant Owen needed at least a four on the par five closing hole to secure the win. The 53-year-old from Mansfield, a seasoned PGA Tour veteran, executed a flawless drive, but had to wait as his playing partner Craig Farrell navigated volcanic rocks on the right. Owen, ever the professional, took charge, drilling a long iron to the center of the green. This set him up for a potential eagle and all but guaranteed a birdie. Yet the drama wasn’t over. Fitchard still had a chance to tie with an eagle putt. The South African’s iron shot landed just 10 ft from the pin, but his putt grazed the edge, leaving Owen with two putts to claim victory. He made no mistake, tapping in for a birdie that sealed a seven under par 65, capping off a stellar week with an 18 under aggregate. But here’s the part most people miss. Owens win wasn’t just about this tournament. It was a redemption story. Back in 2006, he agonizingly missed out on the PGA Tours Bay Hill Invitational after a three putt from 3 ft on the 17th hole. This victory, he hopes, will make his kids proud, even if they’re not golf enthusiasts. It’s been a tough year, Owen admitted. But this feels like validation for all the hard work coming back from injury and divorce. Fitert and Milka Singh, the first Indian to win on the DP World Tour, finished tied for second, each posting solid rounds. Meanwhile, Peter Baker’s late surge on the back nine raised hopes of a hat-tick of victories, only to be dashed by back-to-back bogeies, leaving him in fourth place. Michael Campbell stole the weekend spotlight with a sensational seven under par 65. Following his Saturday 66, tying for fifth alongside Steven Gallaer, Andrew Marshall, and Fairly Welshman Jamie Donaldson, the hero of the 2014 Ryder Cup, rebounded from a disappointing second round with a 6 under 66. Now, here’s the controversial question. Did Owen’s victory hinge more on his resilience or his competitor’s lateg game mistakes? And does this win truly redeem his 2006 heartbreak? Let us know your thoughts in the comments. We’d love to hear your take on this gripping Legends tour finale.
