World Cup of Golf: Pieters, Detry lead Belgium to victory

Thomas Pieters and Thomas Detry staved off a final-day charge from Australia to give Belgium a three-shot victory in the ISPS Handa Melbourne World Cup of Golf.

 

The Belgians’ overnight five-shot lead was down to one due to Detry faltering from three feet to save par at the second but birdies at the seventh and ninth restored Belgium’s cushion.

 

In the foursomes at the Metropolitan Golf Club, the Belgian duo posted a four-under 68 to get to 23 under and win the event for the first time.
