The longtime European Tour veteran Mikko Korhonen finally polished off his first win in his last start at the Shot Clock Masters. The 37-year-old from Finland blew away the field by six shots thanks to four rounds in the 60s.

In 2018, Korhonen also has a solo third at the Tshwane Open and a T15 at the European Tour’s premier event, the BMW PGA Championship.

He’s made eight cuts in 12 starts and has made four of his last five.

At Gut Laerchenhof, Korhonen finished T55 in 2014 and T16 in 2016. He’s a cumulative 14-under-par in the two starts.

Putting is Korhonen’s statistical strength, checking in at 54th in strokes gained putting.

At the Shot Clock Masters he was only 17th in the field in putting. He got it done with the driver (fourth in accuracy, 19th in distance) and from the fairway (third in GIR).

Now that the floodgates have opened with the first win, more could be coming soon.
