From the papers
The Independent

I am really proud to be the first Swede to win before my own crowd. There was a tremendous amount of pressure but I was pleased with the way I coped with it.
The Independent

Jesper never missed a fairway, never missed a holeable putt, and was very cool even though he had the whole of Sweden on his back.
