The Estonian Open, the seventh event on this year's EuroTour calendar, has come to a close with American players making their mark on the competition. In the Open division, Kevin Jones emerged victorious in his first-ever PDGA event in Europe, claiming the top spot with a 27-under-par 150 score.


Jones' win was not without its challengers, however, as Ricky Wysocki and James Conrad vied for second place with razor-thin margins separating them. While Conrad held a significant lead after two rounds, a disappointing final round saw him drop down the leaderboard, allowing both Jones and Wysocki to leapfrog him.


Wysocki, who had struggled in the first round, showed remarkable resilience by shooting a 12-under-par 47 in the final round, catapulting him into second place with a score of 26-under-par 151. Conrad ultimately finished third at 25-under-par 152.


In the Open Women's division, Kristin Tattar asserted her dominance on home soil, claiming the title with an even-par 177 score. Estonian player Maris Perendi took second place with a 5-over-par 182, while Madli Vaht rounded out the podium in third position with a 13-over-par 190.


Tattar's victory marked a welcome return to form for the Estonian player, who had struggled with her putting earlier in the season. Despite facing some adversity on the green, she managed to hold onto her lead and secure the win.


For Tattar, however, there is still room for improvement. The player cited her putting as an area that needs attention before the upcoming European Open, stating that she has made changes to her technique but will not be devoting too much time to it in preparation for the major event.


The Estonian Open provided a thrilling preview of what's to come at this week's PDGA Major, the European Open. With several players from both divisions set to compete again, fans can expect an exciting finish as they battle for supremacy on Finnish soil. The European Open takes place from July 18-21.
