Overview
- Jayden Schaper closed with a bogey-free 64, then chipped in for eagle on the second extra hole to defeat Ryan Gerard after both finished at 22 under (266).
- The win followed his Alfred Dunhill Championship playoff triumph a week earlier, moving the 24-year-old from No. 153 to No. 63 in the world and accelerating his Race to Dubai start.
- Gerard targeted the event specifically for ranking points, traveling roughly 10,000 miles from Florida to Mauritius to secure a top-50 OWGR position.
- Heritage La Réserve Links delivered shifting wind and intermittent rain that raised the difficulty and contributed to the late drama.
- The Masters field stands at 86 after 13 players qualified via the year-end top 50 in the OWGR, with no remaining events set to affect the list.
