Seve won't celebrate yet

Seve Ballesteros was refusing to prematurely celebrate defending the Royal Trophy after his European side extended their lead over Asia on the second day of the annual match-play tournament.

The Europeans added another three points to the three-and-a-half they won around the Amata Spring Country Club yesterday, giving the winners of last year’s inaugural competition a 6.5-1.5 advantage and leaving them just one-and-a-half points away from retaining the title.
