Tonight queen Beatrix (75) - unexpectedly - announced her abdication.

After three queens we'll have a king again. His name is Willem Alexander.

The crowning will take place in Amsterdam on April 30th (the birthday of our late queen Juliana, the grandmother of our future king).

Vivre la republique!!

What seemed to be a boring last day turned out to be a spectalular finale.

Players were Adam Scott (Australia) and Ernie Els (S-Africa).

Adam blew it.

Ernie won his second Open.
