RAS AL KHAIMAH, United Arab Emirates — Spanish golfer Alejandro del Rey has claimed his first European tour title in impressive fashion by shooting a third straight 6-under 66 to win the Ras Al Khaimah Championship by four strokes. Del Rey is ranked No. 308. He finished the week on 22-under par to take victory on his 70th start on the tour. After holing a putt on No. 18 for a fifth straight par to close his final round, Del Rey was covered in water after several of his countrymen ran onto the green. His last top-10 finish was in March last year at the Singapore Classic where he was tied for seventh.
