Welshman Rhys Enoch secured his second Sunshine Tour victory on Sunday by winning the Kit Kat Group Pro-Am in Johannesburg.
It was a tight conclusion to the first event of the new Sunshine Tour season at the Royal Johannesburg and Kensington Golf Club with a few players battling it out for victory.
Enoch signed off with a final-round 67 to move to the top of the leaderboard and edge Dean Burmester and Jake Redman, who had to settle for a share of second spot on 11 under par.

Luke Brown made a promising start and led the way for a long a period on Sunday but a bad back nine saw him tumble down the leaderboard, where he finished in T5.
The 32-year-old Enoch, though, remained focussed throughout his round, rolling in five birdies with a single bogey to end the week with a winning score of 12 under.

Redman, however, had the opportunity to force a playoff with Enoch with a birdie attempt on the 18th hole.
With the Welshman waiting in the clubhouse, Redman’s putt slid to the right of the cup, which saw him tap in for par in the end.
It was enough for Enoch to seal a one-shot victory over Redman and Burmester. Hennie Otto secured fourth spot thanks to a final-round 68, while Thriston Lawrence, Hennie du Plessis and Jayden Schaper finished alongside Brown on nine under par.
