New Zealand's Fox finished runner-up in the 2021 team event in Scotland with cricket great Warne, who died earlier this year.

And after making seven birdies and three bogeys on the Old Course at St Andrews on Sunday to secure a one-shot victory in front of his family, Fox thought of Warne.

He said: "To be honest the only person I can really think of at the moment is Warne.

"He meant a lot to me and this event and was a great mate. It's a terrible shame he's not here."

When asked whether he felt Warne's presence out on course, Fox added: "Yeah, there was definitely some luck out there.

"Obviously I was pretty nervy the last three holes. I didn't hit very good shots, to be honest, down the 16th, 17th and 18th. He was definitely helping out."
