The weather held out, and so did Poulter, after he in his own words "made things too close for comfort" before winning his first international title since the Dunlop Phoenix in Japan and his first on the European Tour since the Madrid Open in 2006.

Gaganjeet Bhullar was on pace for a top-10 finish before bogeys on 16th and 18th derailed his efforts and he ended in a tie for 14th at four-under 280. Jyoti Randhawa finished T43.
