England's Lee Slattery held his nerve to win his second European Tour title with a one-shot victory over Argentinian Estanislao Goya at the Russian Open. Slattery is now top of the new Ryder Cup points table.
On a rain interrupted Day 3 at the Russian Open it was the Lee's who came out on top, defeating the weather to produce some spellbinding golf. That's Lee Slattery and Craig Lee.
While it's not raining as we write this, we know it will do soon. It's the law of averages. We showed you some waterproof jackets recently but here's another six for your viewing pleasure. If you can't find a winner in one of these 12, then you might as well get wet and go swimming instead.

Today it’s the start of the Deutsche Bank Championship at the TCP Boston. We’re all good to go with that. But it seems that Sergio will be staying at home. And he missed the Barclays as well. We wanted to know why?
Tour Edge Exotics fairway woods have long been recogised as being some of the longest in the game. They are absolute ball belters, they have never skimped by trying to hit a price point. These are golf clubs designed with no limits in place. Never paying for tour usage, their fairwaywoods can still be found in the bags of some of the best players in the game on the PGA Tour.
We only saw this late today on Twitter, and it certainly got our curiosity. Who was Dicky Pride, and what was his scrawled piece of paper all about? We loved it, retweeted it, and promised that we’d keep an eye on developments.
Anyone who watched The Barclays will realise Jason Day is playing golf on a different planet to everyone else at the moment. He is absolutely munching his TaylorMade R15 460 driver off the tee, while his Spider proto putter was holing putts for fun, with a 29ft, and 33ft putts made in his final round.
Big bombing Thomas Pieters became only the third Belgian to win on the European Tour, taking the D+D REAL Czech Masters. Despite a double bogey on the front nine Pieters romped to a three shot victory over Pelle Edberg at the Albatross Golf Resort in Prague.
Jason Day won the Barclays in an absolute procession, his 19 under par score was six shots better than second placed Henrik Stenson. The Australian golfer has continued his form from the PGA Championship and was in a different league to the rest of the field as he took his fourth title of the season.
Here are the pairings and tee times for the final day of the Barclays at Plainville Country Club. It's tight at the top. Will it be Jason, Bubba, Sang Moon, or....? Your guess is as good as ours.
One fall out from Jordan Spieth’s missing the cut at the Barclays is that Rory McIlroy has now returned to the Number One spot in the World Rankings.
