Pablo Larrazábal captured his ninth victory on the DP World Tour on Sunday, and he did it in style on the 18th green at Bernardus Golf Course in Cromvoirt, Netherlands. 

The Spaniard, who already had won once this season at the Korea Championship, came into the final round with a one-shot lead, but it quickly slipped away after a double bogey on his second hole. 

Larrazábal made a push down the stretch, however, making three birdies in his last four holes to regain the lead. 

On No. 18, Larrazábal holed a 20-foot birdie putt to solidify his two-shot victory in epic fashion. 

The 40-year-old immediately erupted in emotion, sending the Dutch crowd into a frenzy. 

With nine career victories, Larrazábal ties Jack Nicklaus’s win count on the European Tour. 

According to Twitter’s golf rankings expert, Nosferatu, Larrazábal will move up near the top 50 in the world with the win and into the top 10 on the European points list for the 2023 Ryder Cup.
