Dougherty holds on for Dunhill win

Nick Dougherty overcame an attack of the nerves to capture his second European Tour title in the Alfred Dunhill Links championship at St Andrews.

The 25-year-old from Liverpool, who led by three strokes going into the final day’s play, recovered from slipping to successive bogeys on his opening two holes and posted a one-under 71 for an 18-under aggregate of 270.
