Dan Bradbury emerged victorious after four rounds of intense competition at the DP World Tour's Open de France. Bradbury's stellar performance at the Golf National in Guyancourt, France, saw him card scores of 67-66-69-66, securing a comfortable lead over Sam Bairstow, Thorbjørn Olesen, Yannik Paul, and Jeff Winther, who tied for second place.

During the post-tournament press conference, Bradbury was asked to describe his thoughts as he stood on the final fairway. He had to wait there for a long time and was breathing heavily.

Here's what he said in response :

"Just hit the green. Literally just hit the green, three-putt, but just hit it on the grass. That tee shot, I've not liked it. Yesterday was the first time I hit fairway. But I don't know, something about that tee shot I hate. So getting it in play was the first thing. The second shot is a bit easier for me, just trying to fade one, and if it doesn't fade, fine. There was a big wait on the tee, and that didn't help."

Bradbury's victory at the Open de France marks his first professional victory of the 2024 season and his second overall. Before this win, the 25-year-old British golfer had won the Joburg Open on the DP World Tour.
