English Challenge Tour results - what a great weekend!

Well, it is the end of a very exciting four days of the English Challenge Tour here at Stoke by Nayland. As always, the tournament did not fail to bring with it a huge amount of public support, media coverage and a buzz of excitement both out on the course and inside.

Our very own Jamie Moul did us all proud and after a gripping, roller coaster few days, he finished joint-fifth on Sunday. Jamie had a scintillating first day of the tournament, which saw him finish just one shot away from a course record. Jamie, who won the Acaya Open in Italy two weeks ago, is well in the running for a European Tour Card for 2012.

Frenchman Benjamin Hebert completed the most sensational seven days in his professional career by winning his second Challenge Tour event in the space of a week at the English Challenge.

The man from Bordeaux provided the perfect follow-up to his maiden victory in Switzerland last week by taking home the €25,600 first prize on offer at the Stoke by Nayland Hotel, Golf & Spa after a final round of two under par 70 left him two strokes clear of countryman Victor Rui at the top of the final leader board.

The main challengers soon emerged with Moul making a stunning start in front of a jubilant home crowd. The Englishman birdied four of his first five holes to tie Hebert and Kennedy before the last group had teed off. Houston then appeared at the top of the leader board before Rui and Hebert turned the final few holes into an all-French affair which Hebert finally took control of with two holes to play.
