Finishes third in Kenya

February 22, 2026

Du Plessis posted a five-under 65 in the final round of the Magical Kenya Open to finish solo third with a cumulative score of 21-under.

ANALYSIS
Du Plessis surged up the leaderboard thanks to his nine-under 61 score in the second round and entered the final day tied with eventual winner Casey Jarvis at the top of the leaderboard. Du Plessis opened the final round strongly with back-to-back birdies but was ultimately undone by a double bogey on the par-3 seventh hole and a bogey on the par-4 15th, which made the deficit too large to overcome despite ending the day with a birdie and an eagle. He led the field in par-4 scoring, finished top-5 in birdies made, par-5 scoring and SG: Tee-to-Green and in the top-20 in SG: Around-the-Green and SG: Approach. It was Du Plessis' best finish at a DP World Tour event since his T2 finish at the Jonsson Workwear Open in March of 2023. He's in the field for the Investec South African Open Championship next week, where he finished T25 in 2024.
