Max Kieffer puts three balls in the water on fifth extra play-off hole to miss out on a maiden European Tour title and hand John Catlin the victory; former world No 1 Martin Kaymer a further three strokes back in third.
Catlin carded a round-of-the-day 65 at Diamond Country Club to finish on 14 under alongside Kieffer, who survived a mid-round stutter to post a six-under 66.
The players returned to the par-three 18th for the play-off, where both made par on their first two visits and then exchanged birdies on the third sudden-death hole.
Catlin produced a magnificent up and down to save par at the fourth extra hole before being handed victory with a bogey at the next, as Kieffer put three balls in the water on his way to a quintuple-bogey.
Kieffer, starting a shot off the pace, raced up the leaderboard by following birdies at the first and third by rolling in a 15-foot eagle at the fourth and picking up another shot at the par-four fifth.
