McDowell masters the Tour seven weeks after turning pro

GRAEME McDOWELL, playing only his fourth European Tour event, claimed a remarkable victory in the Volvo Scandinavian Masters in Stockholm.

The Irishman carded a closing round of 67 at Kungsangen, the course he has recently signed a contract to represent and viewed for the first time on Wednesday, for a 14 under total of 270.

A brilliant par at the 18th gave him a one-shot victory over playing partner Trevor Immelman of South Africa, the £200,000 first prize and a valuable two-year tour exemption.
