Shaun Norris started the day six shots off the lead and went on to make an eagle at the par-5 2nd, five birdies and a double bogey at the par-3 7th to close with a 67 and win his second DP World Tour title by one shot at the Alfred Dunhill Championship.
“I’m very happy that it worked out this way,” said the South African, whose previous win on Tour came at the 2022 Steyn City Championship in South Africa.
“This title means everything to me. To win here at Leopard Creek, which is always in spectacular condition and where we’ve had such good champions such as Ernie Els, Charl Schwartzel and Louis Oosthuizen – to now put my name on this trophy is a blessing.
“This changes a few things for me. I’ve got so much to look forward to over the next few years. But now it’s time for a holiday.”
Sweden’s Marcus Kinhult started the day in the lead but carded four birdies, four bogeys and a double bogey at the par-3 7th for a final-round 74 and a share of second place at 12-under.
England’s John Parry made two bogeys and carded a 69 for his share of second place alongside South African Ryan van Velzen who made four bogeys.
