Lars Van Meijel, a former DP World Tour player and current Challenge Tour competitor, took home the win at the PT Tour Palmares Open I after a dominant display of consistency. The Dutch golfer finished the event at 10-under-par, with a total score of 206, showing his ability to stay steady across all three rounds of the tournament.

Van Meijel’s rounds of 68, 69, and 69 were the model of consistency—he was the only player to break 70 in every round. His ability to maintain a steady game under pressure proved crucial, especially in the tight race to the finish.

Portugal’s Daniel Da Costa Rodrigues, one of the country’s top talents, finished in second place at 7-under-par. Rodrigues put up a strong challenge but ultimately couldn’t close the gap as Van Meijel's consistent play allowed him to hold onto his lead.

For Van Meijel, this victory marks a strong start to the 2025 season, a season that promises even more potential. Known for his precise ball-striking and calm under pressure, the Dutchman showcased why he’s a seasoned pro with a sharp focus.

With his impressive start to the season, Van Meijel will now be focussed on his challenge tour season, in an attempt to regain his DP World Tour status.
