Graeme McDowell said he has 'never been happier' after his Scandinavian Masters triumph in Stockholm.

Graeme McDowell said he has 'never been happier' after his Scandinavian Masters triumph in Stockholm.

McDowell carded a closing round of 67 at Kungsangen for a 14 under total of 270.

That gave him a one-shot victory over playing partner Trevor Immelman of South Africa, the first prize and a valuable two-year tour exemption.

McDowell said: "I'm just so excited about what it means for me in the short term. I don't have to go to the qualifying school, I don't need any more invites and I've got somewhere to play for the next two years.

"I've never been happier. To win in the fashion I did is an incredible feeling."

Immelman added: "All in all it's a good week but hopefully I can get a win under my belt by the end of the season."
