Ryder Cup vice-captain Alex Noren upstaged Team Europe’s golfers to snatch a playoff victory in the PGA Championship at Wentworth on Sept 14.

The Swede went into the final round tied for the lead with France’s Adrien Saddier and the pair were still locked together at 19-under 269 after matching four-under 68s.

After both men sent their second shots into the rough at the first extra hole, they were neck and neck once again.

But the inform Noren, who won his first crown at Wentworth Club in 2017, lifted his ball to three feet before tapping in a birdie putt to claim his 12th European title and second of the season.

Noren, one of the non-playing vice-captains in Luke Donald’s European Ryder Cup team, outshone all 11 of the 12 golfers who will be representing Europe at the tournament in the United States later in September.
