Home favourite Dylan Naidoo beat Englishman Laurie Canter in a play-off to win his first DP World Tour title after the weather-affected South African Open was reduced to 54 holes.

Sunday's fourth round was first suspended and then cancelled due to a flooded course at Durban Country Club, and with nothing to separate the co-leaders on 14 under par after three rounds, a play-off was required to decide the winner.
