Haotong Li drained a birdie at the last hole to clinch his fourth European Tour title at the Qatar Masters.
Li holed his birdie putt on the 18th from 15 feet to secure a one-shot win on Sunday at Doha Golf Club.
The No 300-ranked Chinese golfer let out a loud roar, pumped both fists and wept in the arms of his caddie after his winning putt.
It denied Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen of Denmark a playoff.
Haotong Li won his fourth title on the European tour
Li, the overnight leader, shot 3-under 69 in the final round to finish on 16-under par for the week, while Neergaard-Petersen posted 65. He was level with the leader when Li was playing the last hole only to finish one shot back at 15 under.
The Dane was alone in second place, two shots clear of Brandon Robinson Thompson (70).
“I never thought I could come back in this position,” said Li, whose last win was in June 2022 at the BMW International Open. “This morning, I was really stressed.
“I’m just so pleased I made that putt.”
