BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — Yurav Premlall, an unheralded South African ranked No. 598, capped one of the most extraordinary performances in European tour history Sunday by winning the Catalunya Championship by 14 shots — one off the all-time biggest margin of victory set by Tiger Woods at the 2000 U.S. Open.
The 22-year-old Premlall made 10 birdies to shoot a second straight round of 9-under 63 this weekend and finish on 28-under par for the tournament.
