Richie Ramsay closed out a four-stroke victory at the Omega European Masters with a 5-under-par 31-35=66 at Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club in Switzerland.

The 29-year-old Scot slept on a one-shot margin over fellow countryman, Paul Lawrie, who was gunning for a second title in as many weeks. It was an advantage that ballooned to five at the turn today. (Lawrie would eventually settle for a share of sixth place at 11-under 272. The par-4 sixth hole played as a par 3 for the third round due to unplayable turf following considerable rain, thus dropping the aggregate par to 283.) After starting bogey-free 5-under through 12 today, Ramsay sandwiched an eagle hole-out at the par-5 14th hole with bogeys at 13 and 17. He'd par the last to post 16-under 268. Danny Willett, Fredrik Andersson-Hed, Marcus Fraser and Romain Wattel split runner-up honors. This is Ramsay's second career European Tour victory (2010 South African Open Championship).

Scotland's Richie Ramsay defeated India's Shiv Kapur in a playoff to win the South African Open.

In the playoff, Kapur found trouble with his tee ball and couldn't recover on the par-5 18th hole while Ramsay two-putted from 12 feet for birdie and the title. It's the first European Tour victory for the 2006 U.S. Amateur champion. The Sunshine Tour's money leader, Anders Hansen, was already eligible for the British Open, so there were no additions to the 2010 major qualifiers today. The top-50 on next week's world golf ranking (December 28) will earn tee times at the Masters.
