Sun City — Henrik Stenson describes winning this year’s Open as the icing on the cake. He can however add a plump cherry with victory in the Nedbank Golf Challenge and cement his place at the top of the standings in the Race to Dubai. Winning the penultimate event before the final tournament in Dubai will put Stenson well clear of nearest rival Danny Willett, but he knows the treacherous course and bigger field presents many challenges and challengers. "I’ve had a really good year behind me, and it would be nice to finish it off with being Europe’s No1. "I’m sure he’s going to try and find some game here the last couple of weeks and push me to the limit," he said of Willett, the champion here in 2014.
