Fellow pros congratulate jouneyman Storm on Twitter

Graeme Storm returned to the European Tour winner's circle for the first time in nearly a decade on Sunday, topping Rory McIlroy in a playoff at the South African open.

The win couldn't have come at a better time for the 38-year-old journeyman, as he just barely hung on to his European Tour card after last season, and his fellow pros couldn't be happier for him.

Several of them took to Twitter to offer their congratulations:
