Dyson Captures Dunhill Links Title

Simon Dyson captured the Dunhill Links Championship on Monday after shooting a 6 under par final round of 66, finishing 3 shots ahead of Oliver Wilson and Rory McIlroy.

The 31 year old finished on 20 under par for the four rounds, winning a career best £485,850, and moves him into the world's top 50 players for the first time. Having already won the Dutch Open in August, Dyson moves to the top of Europe's Ryder Cup standings.

Luke Donald had led going into the final round, delayed after gale-force winds on Saturday, but he carded 73, ending a disappointing six shots back.
