WATCH: Emotional MacIntyre celebrates win with family
There weren’t any hugs or embraces, but Robert MacIntyre was at least able to enjoy some virtual celebrations with his family after winning the Cyprus Showdown.
The Scotsman birdied four of his last six holes at Aphrodite Hills to card a seven-under-par 64 and finish a shot ahead of Japan’s Masahiro Kawamura.
Afterwards, he was given a moment to celebrate with his family via video chat.
Asked how he felt after the win, the 24-year-old smiled: “All good now, all good now – it’s over.”
