Els claims fifth title in Durban

Ernie Els claimed a fifth South African Open title after his final-round six-under-par 63 helped him edge out another former champion, Retief Goosen, by a shot in Durban.

Two rounds were played at the Durban Country Club today after rain earlier in the week had washed out almost the entire first day, while further showers in the early hours of this morning delayed play and also made the par-three fourth green unplayable.
