South Korean golfer Wang Jeong-hun captured his first European Tour win in Morocco on Sunday (local time) in a sudden-death playoff.
Wang defeated Nacho Elvira on the second playoff hole to claim the Trophee Hassan II at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam in Rabat, Morocco, and take home 250,000 euros ($284,890).
Wang, 20, is the second South Korean to win on the European Tour in three weeks, after Lee Soo-min, who won the Shenzhen International last month.
Wang drained three crucial putts on the par-five 18th hole for the victory. He holed an 18-footer for a birdie to end regulation at five-under 283, tied with Elvira.
In the playoff, the trophy appeared within Elvira's grasp when he reached the 18th green in two, but Wang responded by sinking a 50-foot birdie putt to force another trip to the 18th.
Wang then converted from 20 feet out for the winning birdie putt.
"I don't remember how I putted on the last three holes," Wang was quoted as saying on the European Tour's website. "I just tried to make a birdie. I didn't think about anything; I just putted. It's so exciting right now." (Yonhap)
