Hugo gains first Challenge win

Jean Hugo gained a comfotable five shot win at the Volvo Finnish Open in Helsinki.

Hugo could afford a bogey at the 17th and still close with a 68 for a 15-under-par 273, five strokes clear of joint runners-up Magnus Persson from Sweden and Denmark's Nils Rorbaek.

It was the 24-year-old's first Challenge Tour victory, earning him £8,197, and his second as a professional following his triumph in the Zimbabwe Open last year.
