Martin Kaymer leaves it late

This year, German golfer Martin Kaymer won his very first title at the Nedbank Golf Challenge with a final round 3-under-par-69. He defeated Charl Schwartzel of South Africa by two strokes. The twenty seven year old golfer sunk 4 birdies at 7162m Gary Player Country Club. He came out ahead of the South African in spite of a double-bogey on 3rd following his eagle on par-5 second.

After the match, the former world number one golfer told that the second hole was a kind of extra – two great shots as well as a nice putt. The third one was not really good as he hit a bad tee shot and got into trouble.
He added that the biggest luck for him was on fourteen with his tee shot and making a birdie after that. He might have easily made a 6 or 7, so that was quite lucky that he found that ball in the right place and might chip that down the fairway and make 4 from there.

At one point of time, Kaymer was tied with South African players Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel; and US golfer American Bill Haas, at 5-under. But his consistent performance brought success at the rain filled Sun City resort.

This victory was very important for the German after a bad season. Early last year, Keymar was the world number one, but his performance went down at the end of the season. Martin Kaymer told that he was very happy after winning this year.
