Perth International 2016: Leaderboard Scores, Prize Money Payouts
Louis Oosthuizen won the 2016 Perth International on Sunday, notching in a one-under par 71 in the last round to consolidate his lead and finish at 16-under for the tournament.
Alexander Levy finished just one shot behind the South African thanks to an excellent round of six-under on Day 4, with local Jason Scrivener coming in third after he finished three under for the day.
Gregory Bourdy and Peter Uihlein ended the round one further shot back, with the former carding the same as his compatriot Levy.
As for the American, he could only muster a one-under on the final day and so was unable to challenge Oosthuizen after providing an entertaining contest with him on Saturday.
Oosthuizen will take home €186,760 in prize money for his victory, per the European Tour's official website. Here's the final leaderboard:

Sunday Recap
A nervy start from Oosthuizen saw him drop a shot on the second hole, leaving him just one shot ahead of Scrivener, who birdied the first and third, as the European Tour captured:
The South African steadied his hand, though, and after four consecutive pars calmed his nerves he then had back-to-back birdies at the seventh and eighth—the latter restored his two-shot lead with an excellent approach and comfortable 10-foot putt:
The 33-year-old picked up another at the 12th to consolidate his lead after Uihlein picked up shots of his own at the fourth and ninth to reach 14-under. Uihlein's challenge all but ended on the back nine, though, as he subsequently bogeyed the 12th and 14th.
Despite knocking a calamitous double bogey at the par-four sixth, Levy otherwise played an incredible round as he made a staggering eight birdies.
The Frenchman put in an outstanding effort on the back nine in particular, which he kicked off by picking up shots on three successive holes before adding two more birdies at the 15th and 18th.
His final birdie saw him set the clubhouse mark at 15-under—still two shots behind Oosthuizen, as the tournament's official Twitter feed revealed:

After picking up a shot on the 12th, Oosthuizen was unable to give himself further breathing room as he could only make par on the next three holes.
As Perth International demonstrated, this set up an intriguing finish, given his disappointing end to the round on Saturday:

Oosthuizen was able to make par on the 16th and 17th this time around, leaving him two shots clear heading into the final hole:
There were some tense moments as he needed three putts to seal the hole, but he eventually knocked in a bogey to win by one shot:

The South African was delighted with the win and is already looking ahead to his next challenge:

The win is Oosthuizen's first on the European Tour in more than two years—his last came in January 2014. He produced an exceptional performance to win in Australia, though, so after recapturing his winning touch, it's unlikely he'll have to wait as long for his next win.
