Wins Soudal Open
Sterne posted a five-under 66 in the final round of the Soudal Open on the DP World Tour to win the tournament by strokes with an 18-under cumulative score.
ANALYSIS
Sterne opened the tournament strongly with a bogey-free, seven-under 64 score in the first round, and he stayed near the top of the leaderboard after back-to-back three-under 68 scores. He had work to do in the final round Sunday, and he surged to the top of the table after his eagle on the par-5 17th, which was nearly an albatross after his second shot settled four feet away from the pin. It was Sterne's sixth career victory on the DP World Tour and first win since the 2013 Joburg Open. He's listed in the field for the Austrian Alpine Open next week.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2015
2009
The European Tour veteran from South Africa has tinkered with the PGA Tour, but now has his card for the first time. With six Euro wins – he walloped runner-up Charl Schwartzel by seven strokes in February 2013 in Johannesburg -- he’s not your ordinary newcomer. But he’s also still recovering from hip surgery. He missed the cut in the Open Championship but finished T35 at the PGA Championship. At 33, he’s got a lot of golf left and, if healthy, should be a lock for the top 125 and perhaps a lot more. A key will be how many starts he gets and, being ninth in the priority rankings, he should do well in that department.
