Yang cruises to victory in China

PGA Championship winner YE Yang needed just two final-round birdies to win the Volvo China Open by two shots today at a damp Jinji Lake International Golf Club today.

Yang, 38, held a one-shot overnight lead but a battling one-under-par final round of 71 was enough to top the leaderboard at 15-under ahead of Challenge Tour graduate Rhys Davies and former champion Stephen Dodd.
