The Scot shared the overnight lead with Romain Wattel and Andrew McArthur but Wattel shot 70 and McArthur fell away as Ramsay took the title by a single shot.

Ramsay started his round well, with four successive birdies from the third, but dropped five shots in the space of two holes to fall two behind Wattel.

A bogey-free back nine and birdies on the 12th, 13th and 14th pulled the lead back for Ramsay, and Wattel failed to birdie the last hole to force a playoff.

The win was Ramsay's first since the 2012 Omega European Masters.
