Cool Kaymer continues Ryder aces’ winning run

SUPER-CONFIDENT Martin Kaymer lived up to his own hype with a four-shot win in the KLM Open at Hilversum yesterday – the fifth victory in-a-row by a member of Europe’s Ryder Cup team.

“I think I am ready to win again,” the world number six had said on the eve of his return to action after three weeks off celebrating his first major title at the USPGA championship.

Kaymer’s second successive victory takes him more than €490,000 clear of Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell – Europe’s other current major champion – at the top of the European Tour money list.
