As winds swirled and Leopard Creek Country Club showed its teeth, seemingly every challenger for the Alfred Dunhill Championship title faltered at some point Sunday.
Adrian Meronk, the 54-hole leader who was vying to become Poland’s first European Tour winner, managed to lead after 11 holes before dropping three shots in his next three holes and finishing with a closing 4-over 76.
Jayden Schaper, the 19-year-old South African phenom who earlier this year decided to forego college and turn pro, was eyeing his first pro win until he kicked off his back nine with a triple bogey and made three more bogeys coming in for a final-round 75.
