Denmark's Anders Hansen has leapt into the field for next week's Accenture World Match Play in Arizona after achieving his second victory of the season in South Africa.
Hansen went into the Vodacom Championship 65th on the world rankings and fully aware that only the top 64 claim places in the Match Play, but a closing 65 gave him a four-stroke win.
He could be up into the top 50 as a result, but joint runner-up Charl Schwartzel has to wait to discover if he is Tucson-bound as well. The new world rankings have been delayed 24 hours by the postponement of the final round of the AT&T Classic at Pebble Beach because of high winds.
