Home golfer Casey Jarvis, 22, secured his second consecutive DP World Tour victory at the South African Open on Sunday, triumphing by three shots. Jarvis finished at 14-under-par with a final score of 266 after a closing round of 67 at Stellenbosch Golf Club. This win qualifies him for the Masters in Augusta.
South Africa's Hennie du Plessis, Italy's Francesco Laporta, and France's Frederic Lacroix tied for second place at 269. Jarvis led by one shot entering the final round and extended his advantage early. He maintained his lead through a suspension of play due to thunder and lightning, with only one hole remaining.
Jarvis is the eighth consecutive home champion of this historic tournament, first played in 1903. Last week, he also won the Kenya Open by three shots, with Du Plessis and Laporta also performing well.
