Two Swedish players took maximum points from the Nordea Masters and Memorial Tournament.
The Swedish players on tour ran the Fantasy Golf at the weekend, with the winners of both the Nordea Masters and the Memorial Tournament hailing from Scandinavia.
That Henrik Stenson wasn't one of them was yet another surprise. David Lingmerth won in Ohio, with Alex Noren winning the big points in his home country, as predicted by our tipster last week.
PGA Tour
Lingmerth's first PGA Tour victory would have earned you 405 points. Justin Rose's play-off defeat to the Swede meant he took 345 points, with Francesco Molinari and Jordan Spieth taking 315 each after they tied for third.
European Tour
Noren's four-shot win over Irish Open hero Soren Kjeldsen earned him his first European Tour victory since winning the same tournament four years ago.
