The right main landing gear collapsed and the right wing impacted the runway. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing.
The pilot reported there were no pre-impact mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airframe or engine that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll, which resulted in a ground loop.
