Although 2002 just seems a hell of a long time ago, I played some lovely golf this week, I putted well and stayed patient. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Starting bogey, bogey today while Fozzie Foster started birdie, birdie wasn&#8217;t great, but you&#8217;ve just got to hang in there and I managed to do that with a nice run of birdies at just the right time.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Lawrie&#8217;s previous tournament victory was the Wales Open in 2002. <\/p>\n<p>Ferrie, who on Saturday had fired a remarkable round of 60, crashed out of contention with a 75 to finish in a tie for 11th. <\/p>\n<p>Foster secured a two-shot lead at one stage on the final day, but he then started shipping bogeys and his 72 left him tied for fourth. <\/p>\n<p>His nine-under-par total put him in a group with France&#8217;s Raphael Jacquelin and Jeppe Huldahl, the Dane firing the best round of the day, a three-under-par 67 to make a big move up the leaderboard from an overnight 13th place.\n<\/p>\n<p><!-- E BO --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/bf3a7a26awrie_getty.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>View article:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/go\/rss\/-\/sport1\/hi\/golf\/9437905.stm\" title=\"Scot Lawrie breaks title drought\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Scot Lawrie breaks title drought<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Final leaderboard: -12 P Lawrie (Sco) -11 J Edfors (Swe) -10 F Aguilar (Chl) -9 J Huldahl (Den), R Jacquelin (Fr) M Foster (Eng) -8 C Nilsson (Swe) Lawrie came storming through over the final nine holes to win Paul Lawrie won his first tournament since 2002 with a one-shot victory at the Andalucia Open in Malaga on Sunday.
