European PGA Tour: Fasth earns sixth tour win at BMW International

Munich, Germany (Sports Network) - Niclas Fasth recovered from a double-bogey on the par-four 10th with two birdies over the final eight holes to claim a two-shot win Sunday at the BMW International Open.
Fasth won for the sixth time on tour and the fifth time in the last three seasons.
Bernhard Langer, who has never won this event, fired a five-under 67 to share second place with Jose-Filipe Lima (72) at minus-11. For Langer, this was his first top-five finish on the European Tour since back-to-back fifth place finishes at the 2005 British Open and Deutsche Bank Players Championship.
Anders Hansen (68), Maarten Lafeber (67) and Ricardo Gonzalez (70) shared fourth place at 10-under-par 278.
Fasth and Lima were tied for the lead through five holes at 12-under at Golfclub Munchen Eichenried. Each birdied the third, Fasth with a chip-in and Lima with an eight-foot putt.
The turning point for those two came at the par-five sixth. Lima found water and walked off with a two-putt bogey, while Fasth two-putted for birdie and a two-stroke lead over his playing partner.
Fasth parred the next three holes to make the turn at 13-under, three strokes clear of Lima, who also bogeyed the seventh.
Trouble loomed for Fasth at the 10th. He found the fairway off the tee, but knocked his second over the green and against the collar of the rough.
The Swede duffed his chip, then three-putted for double-bogey as his lead dropped to one over Lima, Langer and Hansen.
Fasth, who won for the third time in five tries when holding a piece of the 54-hole lead, came right back with a birdie on 11 from seven feet out. It was his fourth birdie in four days on the par-five.
The 35-year-old Fasth parred the 12th and led by one over Langer, who made a big run on the front nine. Fasth made some tough par saves over the next five holes to maintain that lead.
Fasth dropped his tee shot within seven feet at the par-three 17th. He poured that in for his first birdie in four days at the hole. Fasth closed with an easy par at the last to secure his sixth tour title.
Langer opened with a birdie on the first, but he flew up the leaderboard with three birdies in a four-hole span from the fifth.
The German made the turn at 10-under and remained there as he parred eight straight from the ninth. Langer birdied the 17th to get within one of Fasth. Langer closed with a par at the last to share second at minus-11.
Lima made the turn at 10-under after a birdie and two bogeys over the first nine holes. He dropped another stroke on the par-four 14th, but posted birdies on two of the last four holes to join Langer in second.
World No. 5 Ernie Els carded a final-round, five-under 67 to end in a tie for seventh at nine-under-par 279. He was joined there by Simon Khan, who closed with a 66. Thomas Levet and Benn Barham were one stroke further back at minus- eight.
