Thriston Lawrence claimed his second win of the season as he overhauled Joost Luiten on a dramatic final day in Germany to take the title at the BMW International Open.
Lawrence cut an emotional figure as he reflected on a fourth win in 19 months. "It means a lot," he said, fighting back tears after becoming just the second South African to win this trophy after the great Ernie Els.
