Two-time Masters champion Langer claims Senior Open Championship
Two-time Masters champion Bernhard Langer won a record 10th senior major title on Sunday as he cruised to victory at the Senior Open Championship.
Langer hit a one-over-par 72 in the final round at a blustery Royal Porthcawl to finish four under and win the tournament by three shots.
The German's former Ryder Cup foe Corey Pavin was Langer's closest rival but bogeys on the 13th and 15th holes scuppered the American's hopes of a comeback.
Langer's triumph pulls him clear of Gary Player's nine senior major wins and puts him top of the senior major champions list. It is also the 59-year-old's third success this year after the German prevailed at the Regions Tradition and Senior PGA Championship.
