Garcia Wins Castello Masters

Sergio Garcia won his first European tournament in more than three years with his victory in Spain’s Castello Masters this weekend. The win was especially poignant for Garcia as he had dedicated the final round to his ailing countryman, Seve Ballesteros, who is recovering from brain surgery.

Garcia, 28, shot a four-under 67 to best Sweden’s Peter Hedblum by one stroke. Garcia has 18 professional wins, but no majors. He has finished second once in the British Open and twice in the PGA Championship.
