Cool Khan takes route 66 to glory

THE BMW PGA Championship may be worth €750,000 to the winner, a major injection of world and Ryder Cup points and an untold degree of prestige.

But for much of a blisteringly hot afternoon at Wentworth yesterday, it seemed nobody wanted to leave with the spoils.

The lead changed hands numerous times, not because anyone was shooting the lights out as Sweden’s Robert Karlsson had done with an amazing round of 62 on Saturday, but because they were all making mistakes under pressure as the innate difficulty of the new-look Burma Road took its toll.
