Englishman Ian Poulter will arrive for his Australian Masters defence in the form of his life after snatching victory in the WGC-HSBC Champions event.
The Ryder Cup hero started the last round four off the pace at China's Mission Hills, but crafted eight birdies against a lone bogey - on the penultimate hole.
He sealed a nerve-jangling, two-shot win with a steely par putt on the last hole.
Poulter fired rounds of 69, 68, 65 and 65 for a total score of 21-under-par 267, with Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els, Jason Dufner and Scott Piercy sharing second place on a congested leaderboard.
Australian Adam Scott hit a final-round 67 to finish four shots off the pace in a tie for eighth with defending champion Matin Kaymer, one shot behind overnight leaders Louis Oosthuizen and Lee Westwood - who both faltered with last round 72s on the Olazabal Course.
Poulter claimed the $US1.2 million ($A1.16 million) winner's cheque with his first individual win of the season, and the 15th of his career - just a month after playing a key role in Europe's come-from-behind Ryder Cup triumph at Medinah.
His next assignment will be the Australian Masters at Kingston Heath from November 15-18 where he is the reigning champion.
