South Africa’s Jayden Schaper made a superb eagle in a play-off to defeat compatriot and defending champion Shaun Norris at the Alfred Dunhill Championship and claim his maiden DP World Tour title in style.
Schaper birdied three of his final five regulation holes on Sunday, including a chip-in at 16, to sign for a three-under 67 and join Norris on 16 under par for the tournament at Royal Johannesburg, while he then played two scorching shots at the first extra hole.
The 24-year-old dug himself out of a bunker with his second stroke and then putted from off the green to deny Norris back-to-back victories after the latter’s one-shot triumph 12 months ago when the event was held in its usual location at Leopard Creek.

Schaper, second to Kristoffer Reitan<\/a> at last week’s Nedbank Golf Challenge, said: “I’ve come close so many times, so to now get it done at home is unreal and awesome. It’s a dream come true and prayers answered.”
Norris, 43, was the player of the day before Schaper’s stunning late show, recording seven birdies – including four in a row between 13 and 16 – and one eagle around a solitary bogey as he shot a 62.
The tournament had been reduced to 54 holes after Saturday’s third round was abandoned due to flooding, with Spain’s Eugenio Chacarra – winner at the Hero Indian Open in March – entering the final day leading by two shots from Schaper.
Chacarra resumed on 15 under par but was unable to get going on Sunday, with birdies at his first and final hole sandwiching another at 10 but also a double bogey at five and a dropped shot at 11 as he carded an even-par 70 and finished outright third.
