TAYLORMADE STAFF PLAYER MOLINARI JUST KEEPS WALKING TO WIN THE JOHNNIE WALKER CHAMPIONSHIP AT GLENEAGLES.August 30th, 2010An hour after winning the Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles, Edoardo Molinari was again jumping for joy after learning it had earned him a Ryder Cup wild card.
Molinari was selected as a wild card by European Captain Colin Montgomerie along with Luke Donald and Padraig Harrington to complete the 12 man team.
The 29 year old Italian, whose brother Francesco was already in the team, was two behind Australian Brett Rumford with three holes of the final counting event to play.
He two-putted the long 16th, sank a curling 30-footer at the 194-yard 17th and then hit a chip to within 18 inches of the final hole to add the title to the Barclays Scottish Open he won at Loch Lomond last month.
Cup captain Colin Montgomerie called it one of the best performances he had seen under pressure in all his 24 years on the European team - and was delighted to announce the first brothers in the match since Bernard and Geoff Hunt in 1963.
