Thriston Lawrence became a two-time winner of the Omega European Masters after recovering from a nightmare start to post a closing 66 and secure a two-shot victory.
Here’s the prize money breakdown for each golfer at the 2025 Omega European Masters
The South African went into the final round with a one-shot lead but made a bogey-bogey-bogey start to surrender his advantage and fall two behind.
With fellow past champions Matt Wallace and Matt Fitzpatrick now ahead of him, Lawrence had no choice but to force the issue and bravely took on the par-four sixth.
The 28-year-old was rewarded with an eagle there before firing five birdies in his next eight holes to open up a three-shot lead.
Lawrence’s heart will have been in his mouth when his approach at the 15th flew towards the penalty area but he managed to save par.

And he safely parred his way home to finish on 22 under par and clinch his fifth DP World Tour title and a second at Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club following his 2022 triumph.
“Winning is tough, it’s not easy. I was so nervous all day!”
