Chips go down as Jacobson cashes in

Three chip-ins – one for birdie, one for bogey and then one for eagle at the penultimate hole – took Sweden’s Fredrik Jacobson to an amazing comeback victory today.

The 28-year-old won the Algarve Portuguese Open at Vale do Lobo on his return from a 10-week injury lay-off that left him so rusty he lost five balls practising on the eve of the event.
