Overview
- Scott Jamieson shot a final‑round 67 to finish 11 under and win the Nexo Championship, ending a 14‑year wait for a DP World Tour title on Sunday.
- Shaun Norris vaulted into the lead after a third‑round, course‑record‑equalling 66 that included an albatross and left him well placed entering the final round.
- Tournament officials assessed Norris a two‑stroke penalty for Rule 8.1 after determining he removed a replaced divot in a way that improved his stance, and he was told of the ruling after the ninth hole so the penalty was applied retroactively to the fifth hole.
- The penalty turned Norris’s par on No. 5 into a double bogey, he closed with a 76 to finish tied for seventh at five under, and Matthew Jordan finished runner‑up two shots behind Jamieson.
- The decision follows recent high‑profile Rule 8.1 rulings and is likely to heighten scrutiny of how officials interpret actions that alter conditions for a stroke at future DP World Tour events.
