Sweden's Henrik Stenson held off the challenge of South Africa's George Coetzee to win the SA Open at the Serengeti Golf and Wildlife Estate on Sunday.

Stenson played an on-par final round for a 17-under-par total to beat Coetzee, who at one point was tied with the Swede in the lead.

But the South African fell behind with a bogey on the 15th, and following a birdie by Stenson on the 16th, ended with 14-under-par.
