Paul Casey held off the challenge of Ross Fisher to win the PGA Championship on a dramatic final day at Wentworth.

Fisher had played himself into contention with a stunning final-round 64 - recording eight birdies in a bogey-free last 18 holes.
Casey was left needing a birdie at the last, but the Briton carded the four he needed to claim a one-shot victory - which lifts him to third in the world.
Soren Kjeldsen was also in the hunt but finished four behind Casey while Stephen Dodd came fourth on 12 under.
Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy dropped three shots on the way home to end his hopes and finished in fifth, seven shots off the lead.
