300-1 Jonzon holds his nerve.

Byline: Graham Woods

MICHAEL JONZON, a 300-1 shot at the start of the Castello Masters, held on to his one-shot overnight lead to claim the victory that kept him his Tour card.

The Swede, without a top-ten finish since December, needed to finish first or second and looked to have blown it when he double-bogeyed the 15th and dropped another shot at the 17th.

That slip allowed Germany's Martin Kaymer to pull level at the last, but Jonzon won the war of nerves on the putting green.

Kaymer tied for second with Sweden's Christian Nilsson a shot behind Jonzon on 19 under, while antepost favourite Sergio Garcia was two further shots off in fourth.

However, Kaymer, a 12-1 shot for this week's World Matchplay, was struggling by the end as he was playing his first tournament since injuring his toes two months ago, while there are also injury concerns about Paul Casey and Jeev Milkha Singh, both due to line up at Finca Cortesin on Thursday.
