Bezuidenhout earned a win over Jamie Donaldson, taking the victory easily with four rounds in the 60s and finishing on 18-under 270.
Dylan Frittelli, Dean Burmester and JC Ritchie made it four South Africans in the top five as they finished in third, fourth and fifth place, respectively.
Bezuidenhout won the €160,889 winner's share of the ZAR 19,500,000 purse.
