Flawless 65 sees Lawrie home

[levina]

A superb eagle and a back nine birdie-blitz handed Paul Lawrie his second Commercialbank Qatar Masters title in Doha on Sunday.


Thirteen years after picking up his first victory in Qatar - a victory he soon followed up by lifting the Claret Jug at Carnoustie - Lawrie completed another comprehensive win courtesy of a final-round, seven-under-par 65 at Doha Golf Club. Ping i20 Irons

The Scot finished at 15 under par, four strokes clear of Australian Jason Day, who closed with a 65 that, incredibly, featured two runs of four successive birdies, and Swede Peter Hanson, who equaled Day\'s total after a birdie and an eagle in his final three holes.

Strong winds that made play impossible for much of the second day shortened this year\'s event to 54 holes, and after grabbing a narrow one-shot lead after the second round was completed on Saturday afternoon, Lawrie sealed the deal thanks to a bogey-free final round on Sunday.

\"I don\'t think I can playPing i20 Irons
much better than that,\" he said.

\"I\'ve been playing well for a long, long time, but it\'s just nice to come out one ahead and shoot seven under.

\"When you\'ve got a chance to win a tournament you don\'t sleep as well the night before and things go racing through your mind.

\"You\'ve got to get back to basics and I did that. I hit some nice shots coming in.\"

Lawrie started in perfect fashion, sinking a 10-foot birdie putt on the first hole before settling down for seven straight pars that, at that stage, saw Spain\'s Sergio Garcia, who had played the front nine in four under par, draw level.

But the situations became reversed on the back nine - Garcia could only rack up two more birdies and two more bogeys, eventually finishing in a tie for fifth on eight under, while Lawrie sprung to life at the ninth, chipping in for eagle to establish a two-shot lead and following Ping i20 Irons
with four more birdies on the back nine - at the 11th, 14th, 16th and 17th - to see off the charges of Day and Hanson. His final birdie at the 17th again came courtesy of a chip-in.
