JUSTIN Rose fired a last round 67 to leapfrog three places and finish tied 16th in yesterday's Linde German Masters.
His winnings keep him firmly inside the top 20 of the Volvo Order of Merit.
Korea's KJ Choi claimed victory with a staggering 26 under foru-round total.
Another Hampshire ace, who will be joining Rose on the main tour next season, is Martin LeMesurier. He slipped to a final round 75 in the Telie Grand Prix event in Sweden, but still moved up to second in the Challenge Tour order of merit - just over 1,000 euros behind Austria's Martin Wiegle.
