GUYANCOURT, France (AP) Tommy Fleetwood hit a faultless 5-under 66 to win the French Open on Sunday by one shot ahead of Peter Uihlein of the United States.

The Englishman had five birdies and no bogeys to finish at 12 under while Uihlein just failed to force a playoff after making a late charge.

The 26-year-old Fleetwood has been in good form recently, finishing fourth at the U.S. Open last month. This was his third European Tour win and second of the year, after clinching the prestigious Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship in January ahead of Dustin Johnson and Pablo Larrazabal.
