Kitayama claims second European title in weather-hit Oman Open

MUSCAT, Oman – Kurt Kitayama won his second European Tour title by a single shot after a remarkable comeback at the weather-hit Oman Open on Sunday.

After coming through all three stages of Q-School in November to earn a place on Tour, Kitayama won the Mauritius Open on just his third start of the season, and with his latest success has now won twice in 11 starts on the European Tour.

In Oman, the 26-year-old Californian carded a quadruple-bogey eight at the first hole of his third round and then dropped two more shots before bad light ended play.
