Andy Sullivan celebrated a 300th England victory on the European Tour storming his way to a nine shot success in the Portugal Masters at Vilamoura.

Sullivan, 27 was cheered on his family and nearly two dozen Nuneaton Golf Club members in posting a last round 66 for a 23-under par tally.

He celebrated becoming the first player to win three Race to Dubai events this year ahead of jumping some 21 spots to 45th in the World Rankings.

It means Sullivan, who rose to fame last year in winning a trip to outer space for an ace in Holland, will get to play all four Majors in 2016 for a first time in his short four-year pro career.

“I’ve been living dream this season but then while I don’t want to put too pressure on myself contending in the Majors is the next step up my career ladder,” he said.

And after seen chatting with European Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke earlier in the week a trip to Hazeltine later next year could be on the agenda for Sullivan.

“It’s up to Darren isn’t it but then never know what could happen.”

Fellow Englishman Chris Wood shot a round of 68 to be in a distant second place at 14-under par.
