Sweden's Jonzon (20-under) canned an 18-foot birdie at the 72nd hole to win the European Tour's Castello Masters (Spain) by one stroke over Martin Kaymer (Germany) and Christian Nilsson (Sweden). Sergio Garcia (Spain) finished fourth at 17-under.
ANALYSIS
37-year old Jonzon, who needed to finish either first or second to guarantee getting his European Tour playing card for 2010, took care of that challenge. Starting the week at 158th on the European Tour money list had him shut out from the lucrative season ending Road to Dubai - this win will help him qualify. His only other European Tour win was at the 1997 Portugese Open.
