SEAN Comiskey won his first Cleveland Srixon Northern Order of Merit title by the narrowest of margins in the De Frece Trophy at Blackpool North Shore.
The Gathurst two handicapper birdied the penultimate hole to prevail by a shot from Lancashire player Richie Blundell.
That helped him to three-under-par 68 and atoned for a disappointing finish to his first round when he dropped five strokes on the inward half on his way to a 71.
Blundell, who was defending his title, returned 71 and 69 to lift himself into third place in the Order of Merit, 150 points adrift of his county team-mate John Carroll, from Huyton and Prescot.
Blackburn’s Steve McGlynn, who finished fourth, stayed in second spot, reducing the gap to 105 points.
