In-form Damien McGrane lapped the field on his way to victory at the two-day Cairndhu Pro-Am.

McGrane's 11 under par total earned him a seven shot winning margin over Waterville's David Higgins with Deer Park's Daniel Beattie and big Damian Mooney tied for third on three under par.

McGrane's win, his 12th of the season, was built on a brilliant opening round of eight under par 62 that equalled the course record at the Co Antrim venue.

The 45-year-old had a six-shot advantage by the end of day one and a second round 67 put him out of reach.

"It was a nice to shoot a low one on day one. I got off to a good start on day two as well but I three-putted the 17th for a par and that halted my momentum a bit," said McGrane who also claimed the team prize alongside amateur partners Seamus Mullvana, Alan Montgomery and Foster McFerran.

"I've not been making many mistakes over the last few weeks and that's allowed me to string together a few good performances."
