DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, Feb. 2 (UPI) -- Stephen Gallacher had birdies on two of the final three holes Sunday to secure a one-stroke victory at the European Tour's Omega Dubai Desert Classic.
Gallacher used a 16th-hole eagle to lock up the championship in winning the Dubai Desert Classic last year but needed an even stronger finish this time around before edging Emiliano Grillo for his third European Tour title. He is the first person to win the tournament in consecutive years.
