Recap

Stone entered the final round in the best form of his life, playing some stunning golf. He was the clear favourite for the title going into Sunday, and his win was never in danger over the course of the final 18 holes.

Per the European Tour's official Twitter account, he became one of the youngest two-time winners in the tour's history in the process:

Stone was solid and composed on the front nine, opening with par on five straight before finding back-to-back birdies. A single bogey pulled his score down a bit, but with him heading into the back nine sporting a one-under, everything went according to plan.

And it was on the back nine where Stone exploded. Everything started to fall for the South African, whose approach game was phenomenal. Have a look at this finish on the 10th:

The youngster was relaxed and composed, and per the European Tour's official Twitter account, he even took the time to enjoy some of the local scenery:

Four birdies on the first five holes of the back nine all but secured the title for him, and while the leader bogeyed once more on the 17th, he held a massive six-shot lead heading into the final hole.

Per the European Tour, he finished the job with yet another gem:

For Stone, it's his second win of the year and his career following his triumph at the BMW South Africa Open in January.

The winner told the European Tour's official website he has the Race to Dubai on his mind this year:

"

To get this win before Christmas is obviously great but more importantly it gets me a good start on the Race to Dubai.

Obviously I finished 50th this year and I want to build on that and this is the perfect stepping stone to do that.

I just played some incredible golf the whole week to be fair.

I think my ball striking this week was superb from the first hole to the last.

That score that I shot this week - 22 under par around here is not a simple task - to do that is obviously quite something.

"

The youngsters dominated the headlines on Sunday. While 35-year-old Sterne hung on for second place, third-place finisher Detry took his first podium on the European Tour in his first event of the season. 

Detry is only the third Belgian on the tour alongside Nicolas Colsaerts and Thomas Pieters, and per the European Tour, his recent rise has been spectacular:

The 23-year-old bogeyed the opening holes of the front nine and back nine, but a key eagle on the sixth and a run of three birdies in four holes saved his round and secured his spot.
