Henrik Stenson has been named Golfer of the Year by the European Tour after a season that included a win at the Open and a second Race to Dubai title.
The 40-year-old Swede enjoyed the best year of his career, although he didn't get into the winner's circle until the BMW International Open in Germany in June. He followed that with a breakthrough major triumph at Royal Troon, holding off Phil Mickelson during a memorable final round.
Stenson starred the following month as golf returned to the Olympics, earning a silver medal behind only Great Britain's Justin Rose.
