Webster holds nerve to lift first title in Milan

TEN years on from beating Tiger Woods and becoming top amateur at the British Open, England’s Steve Webster finally lifted his first European Tour title yesterday.

At his 247th attempt and after five second place and 27 top-10 finishes, Webster kept his nerve to win the Telecom Italian Open in Milan by three strokes.

Level with 10 holes to play, the 30-year-old from Warwickshire, far from faltering, turned on the style.
