"It feels good," said the South African. "I’ve finally done it. To do it on Leopard Creek as well is something special.
"It's my favourite place, this. The course is looking phenomenal - the best I've ever seen it.
"It's the bush. I'm calm in the bush. My first win was in the bush and now we're back in the bush.
"I'm just happy."
