Congratulations from Quintic to Richard Finch who produced a performance to match the grandeur of his surroundings at The Hills Golf Club in Queenstown to claim his first professional title with a three stroke victory in the Michael Hill New Zealand Open.

Just a few weeks ago Finch was battling to save his card and left it until his final event of the 2007 season before climbing into the all important top 115 by finishing joint seventh in the Mallorca Classic. Now, just four events into a new campaign, he put all that behind him with a commanding victory over the Australian pair of Steven Bowditch and Paul Sheehan.

A record crowd gathered to watch Finch, the overnight leader by three strokes, try to hold his advantage and with nine holes remaining, the 30 year old had pulled six strokes clear of his nearest challengers… with an average of 30 putts per round for the tournament a solid putting display enable Richard to capture his first victory, lets hope its the first of many.
