9 European Tour winners from 2012

The standout man from this year’s European Tour winners is undoubtedly South Africa’s Branden Grace. Grace became just the second European Tour Qualifying School graduate to win more than €1 million the season after graduation, and the second graduate to win three events the season after gaining his European Tour card, making it a 2012 treble with victory at the Volvo China Open following triumphs at the Joburg Open and the Volvo Golf Champions in his home country.
