Jake Shepherd produced an inspired performance to win the MENA Golf Tour Championship, beating a charging Sean McNamara in a sudden-death playoff at Al Ain Equestrian, Shooting and Golf Club on Wednesday.
The 21-year-old professional from England birdied the first playoff hole (the par-5, 18th) from four feet after both the players carded an identical 12-under-par 201 to register the biggest victory of his career since turning professional in January earlier this year.
