Peter Baker wins for the 2nd time in Switzerland.

Former Ryder cup player and 3 time winner on the European tour Peter Baker is hopeful of a return to the top flight after his second win in 3 years in Swizerland.Playing in the CREDIT SUISSE CHALLENGE he held on to his one shot overnight lead to beat Austrain,Florian Praegant after they both shot 67s.
41 year old Baker finished on 18 under par after rounds of 70,71,66,67 to become the oldest Challenge tour winner.Now up to 10th in the rankings,he has a good chance of gaining a full card for next year.There won't be any time for celebraring as he has to keep himself in shape as he heads to Glasgow Gailes for the final Open qualifying this week.

Gareth Shaw goes home with 728 Euros after finishing -4 after a 73,and Colm Moriarty was 53rd on -2 after a 71.
