Fabrizio Zanotti made the most of Danny Willett's struggles to produce a superb final round and win the Maybank Championship in Malaysia.

Zanotti was just inside the top 10 going into the final 18 holes at Saujana but a round including seven birdies, capped by a wonderful eagle at the last, secured his first win since the 2014 BMW International Open.

The Paraguayan finished on 19 under and claimed the first prize of just under £400,000 by one shot from America's David Lipsky, who missed a putt to force a play-off on the final green.

The South Africans finished as follows; Haydn Porteous T26, Keith Horne T67. Missed the cut; Thomas Aiken, Hennie Otto, Charl Schwartzel, George Coetzee, Shaun Norris, Justin Walters, Jbe Kruger.
