SUTTON COLDFIELD, England (AP) — Thorbjorn Olesen finished eagle-birdie for the second straight day to win the British Masters by one shot in a dramatic fashion. The Danish golfer earned his first European tour title in nearly four years and ignited his career after a damaging court case. Olesen shot 1-over 73 to finish a stroke ahead of Sweden’s Sebastian Soderberg at the Belfry. Soderberg ended 9-under 279 overall which had looked enough for the win.
