2013 - Week 42 Winners

Gonzalo Fdez-Castono (ranked 19th by Golf Predictor) won the BMW Masters pres. by SRE Group on the European PGA Tour. The 33 year old Spaniard won his seventh tour event and the biggest of his career in Shanghai. Despite a nervy final hole which he double bogeyed, Fdez-Castano secured victory courtesy of the three shot cushion he brought to the final hole. That lead in turn was thanks to what turned out to be a vital chip-in for birdie on the penultimate hole. Our top ranked player, Henrik Stenson, was battling an injury and finished in tied 34th. Overall, we had nine of the top seventeen plus ties (9/23) in total. 

Ryan Moore (ranked 11th by Golf Predictor) won the CIMB Classic on the US PGA Tour. The 30 year old American won at the first extra hole of a Monday play-off with Gary Woodland after the pair had finished tied on -14 in the rain delayed Malaysia event. Our top ranked player, Phil Mickelson, battled with his swing all week, but still managed to finish in tied 19th. Overall, we had eight of the top sixteen plus ties (8/18).
