Jaidee wins 7th European Tour event

Thongchai Jaidee won his seventh European Tour title with a flawless final round showing at the Porsche European Open in Germany on Sunday.

The Thai star led by one overnight, and ground down those chasing him with a steady rather than spectacular four under par 67.

Graeme Storm maintained the most substantial challenge, but found water off the 17th tee and, although he managed to save par from ten feet at the last, Jaidee clung on with a neat up-and-down at the 18th.

“It’s a very special week for me,” said Jaidee, “it is the third time I have won outside of Asia, so I’m very excited about that and I’m happy to win this tournament.
