Lee Westwood wins in Thailand Golf Championship

The third-ranked English star finished at 22-under 266 at Amata Spring Country Club. He opened with rounds of 60 and 64 and shot a 73 on Saturday in the Asian Tour event.

"It means a lot, any win does," Westwood said. "It's special this week because of the difficulty of the golf course, who I was up against in the weekend.

"Charl is the Masters champion and he has had a great year. The fact that I led wire to wire -- 60 in the fisrt round and 64 in the second round, 20 under after two rounds -- it's yours to lose really with an 11-shot lead. There was pressured involved."

Schwartzel closed with a 72.
