Charl Schwartzel wins the Africa Open
Nike Golf athlete Charl Schwartzel won the Africa Open on the PGA European Tour at East London GC, South Africa. Having started the day two shots behind, Charl quickly took up the lead with four birdies in his first seven holes. Three more birdies on the back nine at one point stretched his lead to four, before a dropped shot at the last meant a nervous wait before securing a one shot victory. In a tournament dominated by South African’s who filled the top four positions, it was fellow Nike Golf athlete and Euro Tour rookie, James Morrison, who finished as the leading European in a tie for fourth.
This makes it two wins out of three so far for Nike Golf athletes on the 2010 PGA European Tour, following Pablo Martin’s victory at the Alfred Dunhill Championship.
