South African Louis Oosthuizen has won his first major by capturing the British Open, defeating Lee Westwood by seven shots.
The South African started Sunday with a four-stroke advantage.
It turned into a romp when his closest challenger, England’s Paul Casey, took triple-bogey at the 12th.
Oosthuizen shot a 1-under 71 in the final round for a 16-under 272 total.
