Double joy for Jimenez

Spain’s Miguel Angel Jimenez virtually assured himself of a place in the Ryder Cup with victory in the Algarve Open de Portugal today.

Jimenez carded a final-round 67 for a 16-under-par total and two-shot victory over Australia’s Terry Price at Penina, who equalled the course record set by Robert Karlsson two hours earlier with a 64.
