While Lee Westwood celebrates taking the coveted Quinn Direct British Masters 2007 title, Welshman Stephen Dodd has some celebrating of his own to do.

Dodd won the Jaguar ‘Nearest the Pin’ competition on the 12th hole of the legendary Brabazon Course at The Belfry today, winning a brand new X-Type courtesy of the official tournament courtesy car sponsors, Jaguar.

All professionals on the final day of play (Sunday 23 September) had the chance to win by driving onto the green in one shot on the par 3, 12th hole with the nearest ball to the pin winning the car.

Dodd’s shot landed just 2 ft 4 inches away from the pin and could not be matched by his fellow professionals. Jaguar UK managing director, Geoff Cousins presented Stephen Dodd with his brand new X-Type.

Andrew ‘Chubby’ Chandler, Managing Director of promoters International Sports Management said: “From start to finish the tournament has been a great success this year. The quality of the golf on display did not let us down and The Brabazon course played fantastically. Congratulations to Lee Westwood for taking the title and also to Stephen Dodd for his Nearest the Pin Jaguar X-Type win.”
