Despite a final-round 77 at Real Club de Golf Sotogrande in Sotogrande, Spain, Tom Sloman was able to hold onto his edge at the European Nations Cup, and squeak out a one-shot victory on two chasers. Though Sloman, and Englishman, set himself up with a nice lead through three rounds, his final round was the second-highest number among the top 10 on the board.

Still, Sloman won the title at 6 over.

Victor Pastor Rufian and Jannik De Bruyn made charges behind Sloman, but neither could quite catch him. The pair finished the tournament in a share of second, with 7-over totals.

Caolan Rafferty was solo fourth.

There is also a team component to this event, and led by Sloman’s strong week, England was able to finish on top. They finished a collective 14-over par for the week, edging Holland by eight shots. Ireland was third.

Spain’s Marta Garcia Llorca won the women’s title in a playoff after finishing 72 holes at 13 over, tied with Elena Moosman. The team component was also close, with Holland and France finishing atop the leaderboard, each at 24 over.
