Wang Jeung-hun claims Trophee Hassan II title in playoff

South Korea's Wang Jeung-hun has claimed victory at the Trophee Hassan II tournament in Morocco after coming through a playoff against Nacho Elvira.

The pair had finished one shot ahead of Robert Rock and Clement Berardo after 72 holes and they remained level after they both birdied the first extra hole.

However, Spanish player Elvira could only par his second attempt at the 18th hole, leaving Wang to capitalise with a birdie to record the biggest win of his career.

Englishmen Chris Hanson and David Dixon finished fifth and seventh respectively, while compatriot Joshua White also recorded a top-10 place despite a final round of 76.
