Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>Denmark\u2019s Oliver Hundeboll came like a bolt of lightning out of<\/p>\n

a dark Bloemfontein sky and struck with a final round of 66 to take victory in<\/p>\n

the inaugural Mangaung Open at the Bloemfontein Golf Club on Sunday.<\/p>\n

With all eyes on the likes of Scotland\u2019s Craig Ross and<\/p>\n

South Africans Luke Jerling, Tristen Strydom and Jbe Kruger as the most likely<\/p>\n

contenders for this title, Hundeboll came from five shots back on the final day<\/p>\n

and produced a strong back nine of 31 to take the victory on 21 under par.<\/p>\n

His one-stroke victory earned him a maiden title on the<\/p>\n

Sunshine Tour and Challenge Tour, and made him yet another champion to come out<\/p>\n

of the famous Silkeborg Ry Golf Club in Denmark that is the home club of the<\/p>\n

country\u2019s most famous golfer Thomas Bj\u00f8rn, and also the regular golf club of<\/p>\n

the twins Nicolai and Rasmus H\u00f8jgaard.<\/p>\n

But it was a victory made all the more surprising because<\/p>\n

Hundeboll missed the cut in the previous two Challenge Tour events on South<\/p>\n

African fairways.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just wanted to try and put a good score out there today<\/p>\n

(Sunday),\u201d Hundeboll said of his mindset going into the final round and in a<\/p>\n

tournament where he and the rest of the field were challenged by weather delays<\/p>\n

and a wet final day.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe weather was like Denmark actually \u2013 good weather in<\/p>\n

Denmark. So I am used to this kind of weather. After nine holes, I wasn\u2019t even<\/p>\n

thinking about the win but just focused on a strong finish.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the title looking to be decided between the trio of<\/p>\n

Jerling, Strydom and Ross, all of their challenges faltered over the closing<\/p>\n

holes.<\/p>\n

Jerling bogeyed the par-five 18th, which cost him<\/p>\n

a maiden professional victory. Strydom bogeyed the short but tricky 16th,<\/p>\n

and a birdie at 17 and par at 18 was just not enough for him either as they<\/p>\n

both shared second place on 20 under par. And Ross came home with a bogey,<\/p>\n

double-bogey and birdie finish to drop to a share of fourth place.<\/p>\n

Hundeboll birdied the 18th to cap off a<\/p>\n

great back-nine charge on his way to victory.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe birdie putt on 18 was unbelievable. But overall, I\u2019d<\/p>\n

just like to thank the Sunshine Tour and Challenge Tour for these tournaments<\/p>\n

in South Africa. It\u2019s been such a nice experience for me to come here for the<\/p>\n

first time. I\u2019ve done a bit of sightseeing in South Africa. It\u2019s such a nice<\/p>\n

country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Sunshine Tour now shifts its co-sanctioning status to<\/p>\n

the main DP World Tour over the next two weeks with the hosting of two new<\/p>\n

events, the MyGolfLife Open hosted by Pecanwood, followed by the Steyn City<\/p>\n

Championship at The Club at Steyn City.<\/p>\n
