Donald wins Euro honour

LUKE DONALD was named 2011 European Tour Race to Dubai Golfer of the Year yesterday.

The 34-year-old Englishman ended 2011 as not only the undisputed number one on the world golf but also became the first player to officially top both the Race to Dubai and the US PGA Tour money list in the same year.

“As a professional golfer, you are always trying to do your best and it was good to see all the hard work I have put in coming to fruition,” said Donald.
