TOM McKIBBIN produced a stunning approach to the final hole to seal his maiden DP World Tour title in style at the Porsche European Open. 

The Northern Irishman carded a final round of 70 in Hamburg to finish nine under par, two shots ahead of home favourites Marcel Siem and Max Kieffer and France’s Julien Guerrier.

The 20-year-old, who learned the game at the same club as four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, began the day in a six-way tie for the lead but birdied the fourth, seventh and ninth to move two shots clear.
