Laura Davies wins SAS Masters

OSLO, Norway (AP) _ Laura Davies of England won the SAS Masters by six strokes Sunday, making two eagles in a final round of 4-under-par 68.

She finished at 11-under 205 for the 54-hole tournament at Bogstad, a parkland course that is Norway's oldest. It was her 67th career title and record-35th on the Ladies European Tour.

Davies, who won the 2002 Norwegian Masters on the same course, eagled the second and 15th holes. She also had five birdies.

Ellen Smets, a rookie from Belgium, was second at 211 after closing with a 70. Nikki Garrett (70) and Virginie Lagoutte (71) tied for third at 212.
