Stanley gains win on windy last day

Australian Ian Stanley claimed victory with a closing 73 in windy conditions at the De Vere PGA Seniors Championship.

"It is a great honour for me to win this title," said Stanley, for whom this was his second European Senior Tour win

"I've always believed it is one of the Senior Majors and it is particularly special to win it because it means I have followed in the footsteps of two of my greatest idols, Peter Thomson and Kel Nagle.

"To be honest, I can't tell you how I feel at the moment. It's very special.

"For a while out there, I seemed to be cruising but then, when I got to six in front after the fifth, I might have become a little bit too negative and that let Malcolm back in.

"But all credit to him. He did a great job battling back the way he did and deserves a lot of credit for that."
