Double joy for Molinari

Edoardo Molinari won a dramatic Johnnie Walker Championship with three closing birdies at Gleneagles today – and then an hour later was jumping with joy again when he learnt that it had earned him a Ryder Cup wild card.

The 29-year-old Italian, whose brother Francesco was already in the team, was two behind Australian Brett Rumford with three holes of the final counting event to play.
