Thongchai Jaidee emerged from a playoff match yesterday to win the Nordea Masters in Sweden.
The 44-year-old Lop Buri province native won his sixth European Tour title after overcoming Scotsman Stephen Gallacher and French competitor Victor Dubuisson in a tense playoff round after finishing 16 under.
Thongchai hit six birdies and an eagle at the course in Malmo, Sweden, according to the tournament.
Last month Thongchai qualified for the US Open to be held later this month at North Carolina’s Pinehurst Resort and Country Club.
