Scott Hend has won the Barbados Legends, hosted by Ian Woosnam, on 11-under-par after a spectacular final-round 64 gave the Australian a two-shot victory and a second Legends Tour title.

Having started four shots off the lead at Apes Hill, Hend tore through the field with a barrage of birdies, coming home in just 30 to banish the painful memory of last year’s play-off defeat to Peter Baker – one of five runner-up finishes since a debut victory in 2023.

Greg Owen, who surged into the lead at the start of the day and at one point led by three, finished two shots back of Hend on nine-under after an eventful final-round 69. Scotland’s David Drysdale – on his Legends Tour debut – tied for third on eight-under, alongside Q-School graduate Lionel Alexandre.

“It’s very nice,” said Hend, after what was a course-record round. “I feel like I’ve won it twice. It’s nice to redeem myself after last year’s loss to Bakes in the play-off. I thought if I could try and get my score to double digits, I might get lucky, given the wind.

“I three-putted from three feet for birdie and that lit a match under me. Then I got round the back nine and had another three-putt, and that sort of flicked the switch to concentrate and try and play how I should.

“I looked at the board when we came through nine and saw that I was maybe one or two shots behind, and I thought, well, if I can post something then funny things happen in golf tournaments in final rounds. And now it’s all done.

“I love collecting trophies and it’s just great to be back in the winner’s circle again.”

Overnight leader James Kingston – starting the day one shot clear after a closing birdie in round two – endured a horror start, double-bogeying the first and then dropping another shot at the third. He eventually finished at seven-under after a 72.

Next up for the Legends Tour is the OFX Irish Legends at Mount Juliet Estate, Co Kilkenny, Ireland between the 15th – 17th May 2025.
