FARSO, Denmark (AP) — Bernd Wiesberger held on to win the Made in Denmark tournament on Sunday for his fifth European Tour title.

The Austrian came into the final round at the Himmerland Golf & Spa Resort with a one-shot lead over Scotland's Robert MacIntyre, and he maintained his slim margin after shooting a 5-under 66 for 270 overall.

The Scot matched his playing partner through 15 holes of the final round before conceding a two-shot lead heading into the last. Wiesberger bogeyed the 18th but MacIntyre could only manage a birdie to finish 1 back.

Romain Langasque of France shot a final-round 66 to finish at 11 under, two shots clear of a group of five players including Spain's Pablo Larrazabal and English pair Oliver Wilson and Chris Paisley.

For Wiesberger, who missed seven months last year because of a wrist injury, this was his first top-10 finish in his 10th tour event of the year.
