Additional top-10 finishes on the European Tour were turned in at the Omega European Masters (3), Commercial Bank Qatar Masters (T4) and the BMW PGA Championship (T7.

In a non-major, the victory was the first with an over-par winning score on Tour since Ian Woosnam won the 1996 Scottish Open at Carnoustie.
