Golf: Montgomerie grip tightens on title

Colin Montgomerie has tightened his grip on the European Order of Merit golf title with a commanding performance in the season round of the season ending Volvo Masters in Spain.

Monty has carded a 5 under par 66 to lead on 9 under, two shots clear of Spaniard Sergio Garcia and England's Ian Poulter, but more importantly, 8 shots ahead of order of merit rival Michael Campbell.

The US Open champ could only manage a two under 69 and Campbell says the Valderrama course is not his cup of tea.

Campbell says it is a challenging course and Monty clearly likes it a lot but it is not one of his favourites

Michael Campbell is one under for the tournament, in a tie for 11th.
