Italy's Edoardo Molinari won the Barclay's Scottish Open at Loch Lomond. One ahead after his dazzling third round 63, Edoardo closed with a 74 in the much tougher conditions and, with a 12 under par total of 272, took the €601,599 first prize by three strokes from Darren Clarke. Rafael Jacquelin holed at 40 foot putt for birdie on the 18th for 3rd place alone while Edoardo's brother Francesco, playing with his sibling in the final group, finished in a tie for fourth place with Stephen Gallacher and Peter Hedblom. The win takes Molinari into the World Top 20 with a 22 place jump to World Number 19.

Steve Stricker successfully defend his John Deere Classic title in Illinois after a final round of one-under-par 70 over the TPC Deere Run course. The World number four Stricker collected the ninth PGA Tour victory of his career to finish at 26 under par and defeat fellow American Paul Goydos, who shot a 59 in the first round. Stricker remains at World Number Four but this win means the World Number Two spot is within his sights at the upcoming Open Golf Championship.
