What’s in Alexander Levy’s bag?
Frenchman Alexander Levy secured his maiden European Tour win with a four-shot victory over Tommy Fleetwood at the Volvo China Open.
The Titleist brand ambassador birdied the final two holes to finish on an impressive -19. On Friday he fired a course record 62 to take control at the Genzon Golf Club.
“I just focused on the game and on the target,” Levy said.
“On 16 I stayed patient and hit a great shot and made par. I hit a good drive on 17 and saw Tommy making his birdie so I knew I only had a one-shot lead. I just closed my eyes and hit one of the best shots of the week and I was then two ahead again.
“Then I saw Tommy make bogey on 18 and that helped me make a champagne finish on 18 with an eight iron to three feet.
“The key for me to be successful is to be patient and to believe that I can win. And to keep the smile on my face and try to be happy. That is when I play my best golf.
“If I get upset about bad shots then it leads to bad feelings. I need to enjoy and keep smiling so I tried to do that this week and it worked out well.”
