France's Marc Farry closed with a one-over
73 to win the Cannes Mougins Masters on Monday.

Farry finished three rounds at nine-under 207 to beat Gordon Brand Jr. by two
shots and earn his second European Senior Tour win of the season.

The 51-year-old Frenchman moved into position for the victory after firing a
65 during Sunday's second round, the lowest score of his career on the tour.

Farry carried a three-shot lead to the 17th hole, but hit into the bushes and
made a double-bogey there to cut his lead to a stroke. He parred the 18th for
the win, knocking in a three-foot putt.

Belsham (72) at six-under 210.
