Ross Fisher won the European Open today with a final score of -20. It's too bad he wasted that whole day qualifying for the British Open since he gets in with this win too. Sergio followed up his Saturday 74 with a final round 66 - the low round of the day and finished solo-second at -13. Graeme McDowell didn't do so well today, but a few times they showed him on tv I thought he looked rather handsome in his raingear.
Eduardo Romero won on the Champions Tour. He's a favorite of mine just because he has the nickname "The Cat".
The Big News of course is: Rafael Nadal wins Wimbledon! He beat Roger Federer in 5 sets with a score of 9-7 in the fifth - there are no tiebreaks in the final set at Wimbledon. This match seemed to last all day due to a couple of rain delays and it was virtually dark when Rafa was showing off the trophy to the crowds.
So, we have Spain winning in soccer. Rafa winning the French Open-Wimbledon combo. Hopefully, this will bode well for Sergio at the British Open. Or Miguel Angel Jimenez. Or any other Spaniard who's in the field - I haven't seen the entry list.

So pleased for Ross Fisher. He has a lot of talent and this will hopefully be the first of many victories for him.
