At the Leopard Creek Country Club, Shaun Norris of South Africa won the Dunhill Golf Championship by a single stroke after a final-round score of 67, giving him a 13-under-par total of 275. 

After starting with an eagle at the second and overcoming a double bogey on the seventh to establish an early clubhouse lead, the 42-year-old athlete won his second tournament on the DP World Tour. 

Highlights of the tournament 

Marcus Kinhult, South Africa’s Ryan van Velzen, and Englishman John Parry were all tied for second place, one stroke behind. 

Van Velzen appeared to be in a strong position to overtake Norris at the top of the leaderboard and force a playoff round, but he lost his shot at the 18th hole, finishing with a 72 overall.

Furthermore, Parry was unable to maintain his pace on the back nine despite making four birdies in his first six holes, finishing with a score of 69. Kinhult of Sweden had a three-shot lead following the second round and a two-shot lead heading into the final round. However, he lost the lead after four-putting on the seventh hole for double bogey. In the end, he shot a two-over-par 74 for the day, despite his best efforts to get back into the game. 

On 11-under-par 277, Spaniard Angel Ayora and Dutchman Darius van Driel were tied for fifth place but still had a chance going into the final two holes.
