Alex Wrigley third in UAE

Former PGA Cup player Alex Wrigley had to settle for third place in the AESGC International Pro Am at Al Ain in the UAE.

The Hartlepool golfer – who has won the event once and finished second four times – was right in the mix with a third round 65, which followed a pair of 69s. However, he couldn’t reproduce the form which saw him grab seven birdies on day three as he posted a final round 68 to finish on nine under-par.

That saw him finish in a tie for third place for the second year in a row as Graeme Bell finished in 13th place and Christoph Guenther won the title with a 13 under-par total.
