Robert Karlsson has won the the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in a playoff in Scotland.

The Swede finished on -10 alongside Germany's Martin Kaymer and England's Ross Fisher before taking the title with a brilliant birdie on the first hole of the three-way playoff.

Padraig Harrington finished five-under par after a closing 71 - one shot behind his other Order of Merit rival Lee Westwood and Ulster's Rory McIlroy who shot a fine 67 today.

Karlsson now leads the earnings table with four events remaining.
