ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Paul Casey shot a 2-under 70 yesterday to win the Abu Dhabi Championship by one stroke over Louis Oosthuizen and defending champion Martin Kaymer.

Casey, who last won at the 2007 Abu Dhabi event, had three bogeys on the back nine to finish at 21-under 267.

"I have missed winning for the last two years, so this one is very special," said Casey, who captured his ninth title on the European Tour.

Oosthuizen, who started the day seven shots behind Casey, tied the day's best round at 64. Sergio Garcia, who finished tied for eighth at 272, also shot a 64.

Kaymer (67) rolled in a 25-foot eagle putt on the par-5 18th to finish tied for second.

Anthony Wall (67) was fourth at 270, and another stroke back in a tie for fifth was Padraig Harrington (66), Northern Ireland teenager Rory McIlroy (65) and Johan Edfors (67).
