[Asia Economy Kim Hyun-jun, Golf Specialist Reporter] ○…Mark Warren (Scotland) won without a caddie….

On the 13th (Korean time), at the Diamond Golf Course near Vienna, Austria (par 72, 7,458 yards), the final day of the Austrian Open (total prize money 500,000 euros) ended with Warren shooting 2 under par to secure a one-stroke victory (13 under par, 275 strokes). Starting tied for the lead, he recorded 6 birdies and 4 bogeys. This marked his 4th career win, his first in six years since the Denmark Open in August 2014, earning a winner's prize of 76,823 euros (104.4 million KRW).

This tournament was the European Tour event that resumed after a four-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, having been suspended since the Qatar Masters in March. Warren made big news by playing 'solo.' His caddie was quarantined after testing positive for COVID-19 just before the tournament. "The result was good, but I realized how important the caddie's role is," he said, adding, "I need to find a caddie as soon as possible."
