Euro hero Donaldson in dreamland

Jamie Donaldson completed a "remarkable journey" from journeyman to hero at Gleneagles.

His 4&3 win over Keegan Bradley secured victory for Europe and the 38-year-old Welsh rookie did it in style, at the 15th with a 140-yard wedge second shot to inside two feet, prompting a US concession.

“It was a perfect number for a wedge downwind,” said Donaldson. “So all I had to do was get it on line and it was going to be the right club. For it to finish a foot from the hole, is quite a bonus. Quite a way to finish.”
