Although Alexander Noren closed with a 5-over-par 39-38=77, he recorded a seven-stroke victory over Richard Finch at the Nordea Masters in Stockholm, Sweden.

Conditions at Bro Hof Slott Country Club were extremely difficult as winds howled all day. To wit, European Tour winners Fredrik Andersson Hed and Steve Webster carded a 90 and 91, respectively, in their final rounds. Hed carded a 12 on the par-3 17th, which is an exposed peninsula green; Webster took an 11 on the hole. Noren went wire-to-wire this week, finishing in 15-under 67-66-63-77=273. He slept on an 11-stroke lead following 54 holes; the 63 in the third round was a course record. This is the Swede's third career European Tour victory, and second this season (Wales Open). He's already exempt into the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in two weeks, and will be making his debut at the PGA Championship the following week.

Alexander Noren carded a 1-under-par 35-35=70 in his final round of the Saab Wales Open to record a two-stroke victory over Gregory Bourdy and Anders Hansen.

He circled just two birdies all day, the last of which at the par-4 12th hole, and he swallowed a bogey on the drivable par-4 15th, but still managed the lowest score of the six guys within three shots of the lead entering the round. The Swede held the outright lead after 36 and 54 holes, and was the only golfer inside the final top seven without a round in the 60s in the final two rounds. He finished at 9-under 67-67-71-70=275 at Celtic Manor for his second career European Tour victory. Among the other spoils that go with the trophy, the win also secures a return trip to the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational in August. He placed T53 at Firestone last year.

With John Rollins and Scott Piercy at the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee and impractically located to be the first two alternates at the British Open, Sweden's Alexander Noren is now the 1st alternate.

Ross Fisher is the guy most likely to withdraw since his wife could go into labor at any time. Australia's Scott Strange moves up to 2nd alternate.
