Daniel Brown emerged as the champion of the ISPS Handa World Invitational, securing his first-ever DP World Tour title with an impressive five-shot victory. The event, sanctioned by the DP World Tour, LPGA Tour, and Ladies European Tour, took place at Galgorm Castle in Northern Ireland.

Despite a shaky start and a string of bogeys in the middle of his round, Brown managed to card a one-under 69, finishing the week at 15 under par. Alex Fitzpatrick finished in second place at 10 under, followed by Eddie Pepperell eight strokes behind. In the women’s event, Alexa Pano celebrated her 19th birthday by winning in a play-off against Esther Henseleit and Gabriella Cowley.

Brown had built a comfortable six-shot lead heading into the final day but gave his competitors hope after a three-putt bogey on the first hole and another dropped shot on the third. However, he quickly regained control by birdieing the fifth and sixth holes. Despite bogeys on holes 11, 12, and 13, Brown sealed his victory with birdies on the 14th, 15th, and 17th holes.

Fitzpatrick’s final round of 68 earned him his best career finish, securing second place. Pepperell finished in third, three strokes behind Fitzpatrick. Ryder Cup hopeful Adrian Otaegui struggled on the final day, ultimately sharing fourth place with Wilco Nienaber, Marcus Helligkilde, John Parry, and Connor Syme.

The victory marked a breakthrough moment for Brown on the DP World Tour, further solidifying his position in professional golf.
