A month after being forced to withdraw from the final round of the Italian Open after his caddie tested positive for Covid-19, Denmark’s Joachim B Hansen secured his first European Tour title in the Joburg Open.

South Africa’s Wilco Nienaber took a one-shot lead into the final round at Randpark Golf Club and extended his advantage to three strokes with a hat-trick of birdies from the fourth.
