World number 3 Sergio Garcia is thrilled this week after winning his first tournament in over three-and-a-half-years.
He dedicated his Castello Masters win to fellow Spaniard Seve Ballesteros who has undergone three major brain operations in the past two weeks, saying "We ll hope he pull through, and we are all thinking of his family at this terrible time."
Garcia, who has been playing the course since he ws 3 years-old, was leading by 4 shots overnight and ended up tewnty under par, with Swede Peter Hedblom three shots behind.
Garcia's father is still the professional at the Club De Campo and this made the win sweater for the local boy.

Seve
Firstly my support goes out to Seve Ballesteros, as true golfing legend.
The news broke yesterday about his brain tumour.
The five-time major winner is a hero and had a massive fan base around he world.
Spanish legend Seve won 87 titles in his illustrious career and was involved in eight nail bighting Ryder cups, also winning it as a captain in Valderamma in 1997.

Golf
After recent dissapointment of the Ryder cup loss, I as am happy to see the names being linked with the title of 2010 European team captain after the shambles of it this time round.
Nick Faldo was a great player but his captaincy wasn't the best. His team selection some what shambolic.
Sandy Lyle, Jose Maria Olazabal and Monty some names being mentioned, but after the romp this year there needs to be a captain who can gee up his team and maybe not show the 'sandwhich' list hours before the opening tee off.
paddypower.com has put Olazabal as the favourite to be named as have ladbrokes.com but Olazabal has said hewishes to be involved but as a player not the captain.
Colin Montgomerie has given Sandy Lyle his blessing as he also wants to play in 2010.
There is a very good link to the bbc website below, an interview with Monty on the nxt Ryder Cup;
