Dane Soren Kjeldsen is the final Volvo Masters champion after completing a two-shot victory at Valderrama.
Kjeldsen led from pillar to post after carding an opening 65, and a final round level par 71 was good enough to keep him clear of Germany's Martin Kaymer and Englishman Anthony Wall.
Kjeldsen - who missed out on this title in a play-off to Justin Rose last season - could even afford his only dropped shots of the day at 16 and 17, before getting up and down well at the last to compete his second European Tour win.
Kaymer saw a 10 foot birdie chance at 14 lip out and then missed a par putt at 15 to drop three behind with three holes to play. Although Wall made a late charge, there was never really any doubt as to the winner and Kjeldsen held his nerve for his first victory for five years.
The first prize of more than Ј560,000 meant the Dane finished the season in 10th place on the Order of Merit, moving up from 27th.
By doing so he qualifies for next June's US Open. So too does Darren Clarke - the top 15 make it and he was 13th - while Colin Montgomerie's 27th place means he has secured a place in The Open at Turnberry.
Kjeldsen said: "It was a long week, but a tournament like this deserved to finish in the sun and it did. I don't think I have ever been as nervous in my life."
