Simon Seungmin Lee and Jennifer Sräga each claimed their first G4D Open titles at Celtic Manor, edging out rivals on the final holes. Lee, ranked second in the World Ranking for Golfers with Disability, shot a one-over-par 71 to finish three over par, one clear of Cameroon's Issa Nlareb A Amang.

Brendan Lawlor, the defending champion chasing a third straight win, fired a brilliant front nine of 33 but fell apart after the turn, dropping six shots en route to a tie for fifth on 11-over. Sräga secured a one-stroke victory over Daphne van Houten after the Dutchwoman double-bogeyed the 18th, denying her a hat-trick.

Kipp Popert also missed out on a historic third title. The G4D Open, supported by EDGA and staged in partnership with The R&A and the DP World Tour, drew 80 players across nine sport classes. This marked the championship's first visit to Celtic Manor after three editions at Woburn.
