Home win for Hanson

Peter Hanson defied cold, wet and windy conditions to give Sweden their first home winner of the SAS Masters for 10 years in Stockholm today.

The 30-year-old, whose only previous European Tour victory in 174 starts came in Spain three years ago, hung on in a nervous finish to lift the £209,056 first prize by one from compatriot Pelle Edberg and England’s Nick Dougherty.
