VINCENT Chidambazina held his nerve to secure a hard-fought play-off victory over Elton Zulu at the Masvingo Amateur held at Masvingo Golf Club on Sunday.
Going into the third and final round holding a four-stroke lead over Zulu and Blessing Gondo, Chidambazina did not have the best of outings on Sunday, closing with a four-over-par 76. His round featured an eagle, a birdie and seven bogeys. Chidambazina started with an eagle at the first hole before going on to drop shots at the second and fourth holes. He then recovered with a birdie at the seventh but dropped another shot at the eighth. He then started the back nine with three consecutive bogeys at the 10th, 11th and 12th holes. He also dropped another shot at the 16th. Having started with rounds of 74 and 70, Zulu carded a closing level-par 72.
Gondo finished in third place, tied with Cosmas Siyakobo on five-over-par 221. Gondo had rounds of 70, 74 and 77 while Siyakobo carded 75, 76 and 70.
