Indian Shubhankar Sharma completed his maiden European Tour triumph on Monday in Johannesburg by winning the Joburg Open tournament, which he almost did not compete in.
He carded a three-under-par last-round 69 to finish three strokes clear of South African Eric van Rooyen in an event that stretched to five days because of bad weather.
The final round was suspended Sunday due to torrential rain, lightning and hail and resumed Monday at 0730 local time (0530 GMT).
