By Phil CaseyDenmark’s Lucas Bjerregaard admitted he thought he had blown his chances of victory before a dramatic late twist saw him seal victory in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship at St Andrews yesterday. Bjerregaard’s five-under-par 67 earned him a 15-under total of 273, enough to win by one stroke from Tyrrell Hatton and his fast-finishing Ryder Cup team-mate Tommy Fleetwood, whose 69 earned him a share of second place. Bjerregaard said: “It wasn’t until the last few holes that I thought I had a chance. “It was tough out there, the conditions weren’t easy and it never really looked like I was in it much until the end. I missed a couple of putts on the 14th and the 15th which I thought were crucial.”
