Matt Fitzpatrick insisted he was trying to play down his chances of a Ryder Cup debut following his three-shot win at the Nordea Masters. Fitzpatrick displayed composure beyond his 21 years to safely protect his overnight five-shot lead as a solid final-round 71 proved enough to hold off Lasse Jensen and Nicolas Colsaerts at Bro Hof Slott.The young Englishman had endured a poor run of results since posting his only top-10 finish of the season at The Masters in April, when a superb final-round 67 lifted him into a tie for seventh - five shots behind Danny Willett. Fitzpatrick held his nerve to wrap up a three-shot win in Sweden Fitzpatrick missed the cut by one shot in his next three starts, but he roared back to form in Stockholm to pick up his second European Tour title following his impressive wire-to-wire victory in the British Masters supported by Sky Sports at Woburn in October.He remains fourth on the European points list in the Ryder Cup standings, but the win in Sweden extended his advantage over fifth-placed Andy Sullivan to almost 270,000 points.

Hopefully Ill keep playing well and see where we end up come September. Fitzpatrick retains the final qualifying place in the European points list for the Ryder Cup Asked to rate his progress since his maiden Tour victory at Woburn, Fitzpatrick added: Im completely a million miles ahead of schedule.Its been a tough few weeks to be fair. After the Masters I had three missed cuts in a row and didnt play as well as Id like at Wentworth last week, and all of a sudden you turn up this week and pick up a win. The 21-year-old is the youngest winner of the Nordea Masters, surpassing Graeme McDowell Ill never forget my first win, but this is a special one for me as well. To win once, people might say that was lucky but to win twice and people might have a little bit more confidence in you. So its nice to back that up.Its great to see some of those names on the trophy, like Nick Faldo, Lee Westwood, Luke Donald. Its brilliant. I think I noticed Tony Jacklins name on there as well, and theres some great foreign players as well, so Im delighted. Fitzpatrick missed three straight cuts after his tie for seventh at The Masters I was just trying to stick to my game plan today, as I didnt want to chase. Thought that would be silly of me to try and do that. I think the first time I was ale to really relax was once I found the green on the 17th.Theres no bailout on that hole. When I actually hit it and I thought thats a great shot, and it should be really close. It came down and it looked close, and then it started spinning and my heart was in my mouth. And Im sure my dad at home was panicking about that one. American Golf Competition Win replica clubs and bag of the player who wins the US Open - enter now!
