“On the 14th, Rafick birdied to go one ahead. I birdied the 15th to tie again, then par 16th. Rafick made a bogey. On 17th I made a massive drive with 3 wood about 285yrds. Then stuck my 2nd shot 2ft to birdie the hole . Rafick too made birdie.
“One shot ahead on 18th, my tee off was next to right bunker about couple of yards short of the green. Rafick was left edge of the green. I chipped it within 1ft and Rafick putted to 2ft. He holed out for a par and I had 1ft putt to win the tour championship, which dropped centre cup.”
