Jorge Campillo closed with a 66 to reach 18-under and win the Magical Kenya Open by two shots.
Jorge Campillo followed in the footsteps of countryman Seve Ballesteros by winning the 2023 Magical Kenya Open Presented by Absa. #MagicalKenyaOpen
— DP World Tour (@DPWorldTour) March 12, 2023
The event was previously won by fellow Spaniards Seve Ballesteros in 1978, José María Cañizares in 1984 and Jordi Garcia Pinto in 2013.
“It’s hard to put my name under those names. Where I am from, the little town, I am very proud,” said Campillo.
“Obviously it’s always nice to win a golf tournament but to put my name on the same trophy as Seve is obviously more special for a Spaniard.
“We will (celebrate) when I get back. I will try to enjoy the moment now, sign the scorecard and just get ready for the next tournament.
“You know how golf is, you win now and then the next day you are not that good any more.”

Another Spaniard, Borja Virto finished fourth at 14-under alongside Poland‘s Lukas Nemecz, both also carded 66s.
