Peter Baker cruised to a classy seven-shot victory to claim his second career Legends Tour title at Seapoint Golf Links, County Louth.
The former Ryder Cup player started the final round with a huge 11-shot advantage after a bogey-free 66 in round one and a sublime course record 63 in round two, and he was in total control throughout the final round as he completed the job with a 69 for a -18 total.
The Englishman started with five pars and a birdie on 6 and bogey on 9 gave him a level par front nine and a seven-shot advantage moving into the inward half. He effectively sealed the deal with a brilliant eagle at 10 and a birdie at 11, before playing the remaining holes in even par – with a bogey at 12 and birdie at 16 – to seal a richly deserved win in front of the brilliant Irish fans.
Adilson da Silva and Patrik Sjoland were tied-4th on -5 and defending champion Phillip Price fired an excellent final round of 67 to climb to 6th.
Ricardo Gonzalez came into the last day in a three-way tie for 3rd and he made sure he finished solo 2nd with a best-of-the-day 65 to get to -11. The Argentinian circled red numbers on 1, 3, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 18. Michael Long overcame a double bogey on 5 with a back nine of 32 to finish alone in 3rd on -7.
It’s a first win in four years after he last tasted victory at the French Senior Open in 2019, and continues a positive start to the season following a tied-14th finish at the Riegler and Partner Legends in Austria and a tied-3rd in the Jersey Legends two weeks ago
