THOMASTOWN, Ireland — Adrian Meronk became Poland's first winner on the DP World Tour Sunday with a superb closing stretch at Mount Juliet for a 6-under 66 and a three-shot victory in the Horizon Irish Open.
Meronk was one shot behind Ryan Fox of New Zealand with four holes remaining when he went birdie-birdie-eagle to give himself room for error on the tough closing hole. He made par and walked off the 18th green soaked in a champagne celebration.
“It's such a relief,” Meronk said. “After coming quite close a couple of times, to finally open the door, it's just a dream come true.
