Maybin fails to win South African Open in play-off

Richard Sterne edged out Northern Ireland’s Gareth Maybin on the first play-off hole to win the South African Open today after both players finished 14 under at Pearl Valley Golf Estates.

Sterne, who also won the Alfred Dunhill Championship seven days ago, shot a final round of 66 to move into contention after overnight leader Lee Westwood struggled to a closing 73 to finish one behind.
