Atzenbrugg (Austria) (AFP) - England's Chris Wood claimed his second European Tour title on Sunday with a two-shot triumph in the Austrian Open at the Diamond Country Club.

Wood started the final round five shots off the lead which had been held by France's Gregory Bourdy since Thursday.

But a final round of a five-under 67 gave him his first title since the 2013 Qatar Masters.

Woods said he was delighted with victory especially after an injury-hit start to the season when his wrist was in a cast as a result of an injury suffered while playing tennis.
