The Britain and Ireland team won three-of-five matches Friday, widening its lead over Continental Europe to 6-4 at The Vivendi Trophy with Seve Ballesteros. The matches were in the four-ball format, in which a team's best individual score on each hole counts. The British-Irish team of Simon Dyson and Oliver Wilson carded a 2 and 1 victory over world No.

Denmark's Anders Hansen shot 7-under-par 65 Thursday and holds a one-stroke lead after the first 18 holes at the European Open in Kent, England. His bogeyless round included five birdies and an eagle at the par-5 eighth hole. I've been struggling a bit with my long game and (today's score) gave me a huge confidence boost, Hansen said on the European Tour Web site.

England's Paul Casey birdied the last two holes Sunday and won the European Tour's BMW PGA Championship by one stroke over countryman Ross Fisher. In Sunday's final round at the storied Wentworth Golf Club in Virginia Water, England, Casey, the leader by three after Saturday's third round, shot 4-under-par 68 to Fisher's 8-under 64. Casey's 72-hole total was 17-under 271 to Fisher's 16-under 272. It was not an easy putt, Casey said about the five-footer which secured his second tournament win on the European Tour.

David Horsey is among three players sharing the lead at 5-under-par 67 through 18 holes at the BMW PGA Championship in Virginia Water, England. The native of Wilmslow, England, completed his round after an early start Thursday and later was joined by countryman Anthony Wall and Spain's Gonzalo Fernando-Castano at the top of the leader board. I started off a little bit slow (but) I'm very pleased with how I finished, Horsey, a former Walker Cup player, said on the European Tour Web site. My iron play was good today, said Wall.

Ernie Els had a 4-under-68 for a two-shot lead after the third round of the Dubai Desert Classic on Saturday, and Tiger Woods had another difficult day on the greens. Els finished at 17-under 199, despite bogeying the first and eighth holes.
