Erik van Rooyen drained an eagle putt at the par-5 18th hole for a come-from-behind win at the World Wide Technology Championship on Sunday in Los Cabos, Mexico.

The native of South Africa fired an 8-under 28 on the back nine to overtake the field and post a 9-under 63. He recovered from an opening bogey to make eight birdies on the day -- six coming on the back nine.
