Soren Kjeldsen ends a six-year wait for a victory by winning the Irish Open at Royal County Down in a three-way playoff.

Soren Kjeldsen won his first golf tournament in six years by coming through a three-way playoff after a high-scoring final round in the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.

The Dane led by two shots going into the final round, but had to hold off Eddie Pepperell and Bernd Wiesberger on the 19th hole of the day.

Kjeldsen, who turned 40 two weeks ago, missed a short putt at the 17th which would have seen him record a one-shot victory and then was close to missing his par putt at the 18th after overshooting with his first chip.

He managed to finish on two-under-par for the tournament after a five-over final round of 76, joining England's Pepperell (69) and Austria's Wiesberger (73).

The trio headed back down the final hole at Royal County Down and it was Kjeldsen who recorded a birdie four to clinch victory as Wiesberger and Pepperell could only make par.

Pepperell didn't make a single bogey all day and was one of only four men to go under par in blustery and wet conditions in Northern Ireland.

Rafael Cabrera-Bello and Tyrrell Hatton - both one-under - were the only other players to finish the tournament in minus figures.
