Veerman鈥檚 Czech Masters

Johannes Veerman closed with a 4-under-par 68 to win the Czech Masters yesterday for his maiden European Tour title. The American finished two strokes ahead of Tapio Pulkkanen (72) of Finland and another American Sean Crocker (70) for a 15-under total of 273 at Albatross Golf Resort near Prague. Veerman鈥檚 previous best European Tour finish was third at the Irish Open earlier this season. 鈥淚t鈥檚 unbelievable. I mean, I played with two great players today, both of them played really well the whole entire way,鈥 Veerman said. 鈥淎t one point there were four of us all tied for the lead and I just stuck to my game. I can鈥檛 believe I won.鈥 Former British Open champion Henrik Stenson carded a 71 to tie for fourth a shot back along with American Paul Peterson (70), who won the Czech Masters in 2016.
