Casey Jarvis sealed his second successive DP World Tour title following a brilliant three-shot victory at the Investec South African Open Championship.
The 22-year-old made his breakthrough at this level with last week's triumph in Kenya, and he carried over that momentum on home soil at Stellenbosch Golf Club.
He rolled in four birdies and a bogey in his final-round 67 for a 14-under-par total, three clear of fellow South African Hennie du Plessis, Italy's Francesco Laporta and Frenchman Frederic Lacroix.
An emotional Jarvis, who had to endure a 35-minute delay due to a threat of lightning as he stood at the final tee, said: "I feel on top of the world in this moment. I feel absolutely incredible.
"To win in front of my home crowd in my home Open is just absolutely fantastic, I've got no words!"
Jarvis also gains a place at the Masters at Augusta in April, while he, Laporta and Lacroix also qualified for The Open at Royal Birkdale in July.
Elsewhere, Áine Donegal finished in a tie for 16th on nine under par at the Ford Women's NSW Open. Donegan, who led after 36 holes, carded a final round 70 to move back up the leaderboard after a disappointing third round. Anna Foster finished four under.
The Ladies European Tour event was won by Agathe Laisné. The Frenchwoman followed up Saturday’s 64 (-7) with a 65 (-6) on Sunday to secure a one-shot victory over Thailand’s April Angurasaranee and Korean amateur Soomin Oh on 16-under par.
On the LPGA Tour, Australian Hannah Green won the HSBC Women's World Championship for a second time, holding off a fast-finishing American Auston Kim to claim a one-stroke victory.
Green, the 2019 Women's PGA Championship winner, closed with a 69, after an erratic back-nine with three birdies and three bogeys nearly opened the door for Kim.
Green tapped in for bogey at the last and a 14-under four-round total of 274 at the par-72 Sentosa Golf Club and give her another title in Singapore after also winning here in 2024.
Leona Maguire shot 75 on the final day to finish on level par overall.
