Wallace made birdie on the first playoff hole to win the Omega European Masters over Alfredo Garcia-Heredia.
Wallace ended a six-year winless drought on the DP World Tour with his victory in Switzerland. It was not easy on the weekend after he shot 64-62 to take a commanding lead. He shot a three-over 73 in round three in tough conditions and then battled to an even-par 70 in the final round to be able to force a playoff with Garcia-Heredia, who shot a four-under 66. With the win Wallace rises to 73rd in the OWGR and 22nd in the Race to Dubai. He will not be in the field for the Irish Open, but is expected to play the BMW PGA Championship the following week.
