Italy's Guido Migliozzi has won this year's European Tour that was played at the Karen Country Club in Nairobi.

The 22-year-old rookie overcame stiff competition from Justin Harding, Louis de Jager and Adri Arnaus to become the winner of the Magical Kenya Open.

Playing his 14th European tour, Migliozzi claimed the trophy with a sixteen-under-par, calming his nerves on the tense fourth round to win with a single shot.
