Robert MacIntyre has promised his mother a new kitchen after the biggest prize of his career with the British masters.
The last 66 of the Scot brought him to 15-down in Southport, leaving him behind for second place, just one blow behind the Swede Marcus Kinhult.
MacIntyre & # 39; s show will take him home with more than £ 200,000 – the biggest prize of his career.
"She's getting her kitchen now. She's got it, it's an appointment," he said.
The 22-year-old admitted that he was "eroded" but "proud" of how close he came to win his first European Tour.
"It was brilliant. To finish the way I ended up – that's what I work for," MacIntyre told BBC Scotland.
"It is what I practice and do the hours well. I am upset, it was just lacking, I pushed it to the end and I am proud of it.
" I always think that miracles can happen. It was never done. "
MacIntyre played its final round with local host Tommy Fleetwood, who finished tenth after a final round of 73.
" The crowds were there from the start and I've never been for this kind of crowds played, "MacIntyre said." I was a little wary in the beginning, I was nervous. But I couldn't choose a better way to end up playing with Tommy.
"It would of course have been nice to win it, but to be short and how I played, I couldn't think of a better way."
