He entered round four at Heritage La Reserve Golf Club with a one-shot lead but soon saw that evaporate as playing partner Jacques P de Villiers, England's Laurie Canter and Swede Sebastian Söderberg all had their sights on the title.

However, Oosthuizen (-19) kept his cool on back nine to shoot 69 and claim a two-shot victory over Canter at 17-under.

South African De Villiers, Söderberg - who carded the lowest round of the day with a 63 - and England's Daniel Brown finished at 14-under, one clear of South Africa's Jayden Schaper.

Sunday's triumph comes after Oosthuizen emerged victorious at the Alfred Dunhill Championship at Leopard Creek Country Club in Malelane on Monday.

The Mauritius crown was Oosthuizen's 11th on the DP World Tour (formerly called European Tour).

The win at the weather-delayed Alfred Dunhill Championship was Oosthuizen's first title in five years but he now has two in six days. This win will be extra special at it comes on a course he co-designed with Peter Matkovich.

"Golf is the strangest thing," Oosthuizen told the DP World Tour. "The last five weeks I've not done a lot with golf, I've played a few rounds and when I got to Leopard Creek I was working on a small little thing. I started hitting it really good and I know I'm putting well and then I just carried on with that
