Ryan Fox was ecstatic to pick up a win at the BMW PGA Championship with a total score of 18 under 270, beating the runners-up by one stroke. Elated to lift the trophy after the tournament, he said via BBC:

"I certainly didn't think I'd be talking to you [as the winner] after the third hole today. I've always struggled a little bit around here. I think I've snuck maybe one top 20 and struggled to make any cuts. To have a back nine like that, especially after how I started, was amazing."
