Result: Bjorn storms to European Masters win

Thomas Bjorn continued his winning form this year, shooting a final round 62 to finish 20-under-par at the European Masters and win his third event of 2011.

The Dane finished four clear of Germany's Martin Kaymer, with US Open Champion Rory McIlroy a further shot back.

Bjorn, who also won last week's Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles, fired nine birdies and an eagle along with two bogies to equal his best ever round in a tour event.

The 40-year-old now leads the race to qualify for next year's Ryder Cup.

The tournament at the Crans-sur-Sierre course was the first event where competitors could register points for the event in Medina next year.
