The South African Open was played at Glendower Golf Course from 7 to 10 January 2016. I interviewed the first 3 finishers. Here are some photographs. The tournament was won by 22 year old Brandon Stone. He had some ups and downs, but reset his mind and his body and took the title.

Second placed Chriaan Bezuidenhout took the second spot after a 2 year ban for using beta blockers. Many think that this was unfair as the medication had been prescribed by his doctors to help him with his stutter.

A good interview. He doesn’t allow his stutter to affect the interview or his play.
