A Comeback Story for the Ages

Parry, who had previously enjoyed success on the 2024 HotelPlanner Tour with three victories, hadn’t claimed a title on the DP World Tour in over 14 years.

However, anyone who witnessed Parry’s final round will surely agree – his resilience has paid off.

Final Round Fireworks

Starting the final round five shots off the lead, Parry found himself in a tough spot. But he turned up the heat, and boy, did he deliver! With a stunning finish that included an eagle on the 12th hole, seven birdies, and just one bogey, he completed his round with an impressive score of 64. This remarkable performance brought his total to 14 under par, securing him the win.

In the end, South African golfers Dylan Naidoo and Christo Lamprecht each finished in a tie for second place at 12 under par, just two strokes shy of Parry. Jovan Rebula made a commendable effort as well, finishing one shot further back.

Setting the Scene for Future Golfers

The AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open is more than just a tournament; it’s a showcase of emerging talent and a chance for seasoned golfers to shine. The event featured a solid field of 156 players from both the DP World Tour and the Sunshine Tour, competing for a hefty total purse of $1,200,000.

Alongside the tournament, the venue collaborates with Reef Conservation to aid in marine habitat restoration, focusing on initiatives like seagrass and coral nursery projects. It’s golf with a cause!
