Wilson wins Dunhill Cup

LONDON. — World number 792 golfer Oliver Wilson held on to win his first European title at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship yesterday.
The Englishman (34) edged ahead of a strong chasing pack — including world number one Rory McIlroy — to win by a stroke at St Andrews on 17 under par.
Wilson played in the 2008 Ryder Cup but lost his European Tour card in 2012 and needed an invite to play at St Andrews.
“So many people had written me off and that hurt, but I kept believing,” said Wilson, who wins almost £500 000.

“A lot of people had a part in this and I can’t thank them enough. This is pretty special. “It’s been a long time coming and I have a lot of champagne on hold. It’s going to be a good party.” — BBC Sport.
