DP World Tour: Investec South African Open Tee Times Leaderboard
After 9 holes Casey Jarvis who won last week is clinging to a 2 shot lead at -14
from veteran Hennie Du Plessis -12 as they vie for their National Open
EDIT>>>
Casey Jarvis secured back-to-back DP World Tour titles following a composed final round of 67 in an emotional 2026 South African Open Championship victory.
The 22-year-old had been riding on the crest of a wave after last week's triumph at the Magical Kenya Open presented by absa - his first at this level.
He led by one after 54 holes at Stellenbosch Golf Club, and he rolled in four birdies and a bogey to convert his second three-shot success in two weeks with a -14 total.
Jarvis becomes the third player to record multiple wins this season alongside fellow South African Jayden Schaper and American Patrick Reed, emulating his compatriot's feat of successive victories.
The Masters Tournament and the 154th Open Championship now beckon for Jarvis after becoming the seventh different home winner in the last seven editions of this event.
"I feel on top of the world in this moment," Jarvis said. "I feel absolutely incredible.
"To win in front of my home crowd in my home Open is just absolutely fantastic, I've got no words!
"There's so many good memories (of this event). Brandon Stone, who's a good friend of mine, I watched him when I was about 10 years old and watched him win the SA Open.
"I just had a slight feeling from the start of the week that something crazy was going to happen and it's incredible."
The pressure of holding a two-shot lead heading down the last would have ramped up further when play was suspended for a threat of lightning, with the final group standing at the 18th tee.
After a 35-minute delay, Jarvis' nerves were eased when Du Plessis found the water with his approach and he only needed two putts to seal his second DP World Tour crown
Du Plessis, who secured the $100,000 bonus courtesy of the Course Record Presented by Nexo for his of -7 63 on Friday, bogeyed the last to slip back to -11 alongside Francesco Laporta and Frederic Lacroix.
Eddie Pepperell signed for a flawless 64 to take solo fifth at -10 while South African pair Daniel van Tonder and Haydn Porteous and Emirati Adrian Otaegui were two shots further back at -8
Spanish pair Angel Ayora and Rafa Cabrera Bello were at -7 alongside home favourite Wilco Nienaber, Scot Ewen Ferguson and Englishman Nathan Kimsey.
