Schwartzel wins it

/ 09:46 PM December 17, 2012

MALELANE, South Africa—Charl Schwartzel was the runaway winner for the second time in a week as he coasted to a 12-shot victory at the European Tour’s Alfred Dunhill Championship in South Africa on Sunday.

The former Masters champion had a 24-under-par score of 264 at Leopard Creek Country Club to improve on an 11-shot win in Thailand last weekend.

The South African cruised to his eighth career title on the European Tour with a final-round 3-under 69 to win ahead of Sweden’s Kristoffer Broberg on 12 under. Schwartzel also won this tournament for his first title on the Tour back in 2004.

Schwartzel was also only three shots off Tiger Woods’ record for the biggest margin of victory on the European Tour. AP
