DOHA, Qatar — Li Haotong has holed a birdie putt from 15 feet at the last hole to secure a one-shot win at the Qatar Masters on Sunday for his fourth title on the European tour. The No. 300-ranked Chinese golfer gave out a loud roar, pumped both fists and wept in the arms of his caddie after his winning putt at Doha Golf Club. It denied Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen of Denmark a playoff. Li, the overnight leader, shot 3-under 69 in the final round after Neergaard-Petersen posted 65. Li's last win was in June 2022 at the BMW International Open and he said "I never thought I could come back in this position. This morning, I was really stressed." It completes a run of four events in the Middle East. The tour next heads to Kenya on Feb. 20—23.
