De Beer takes Individual Honours at Louis’ Tourney

Congratulations to Bradley de Beer from Fancourt, who won the Individual Title at the 2016 Louis Oosthuizen SA Junior Club Championship at Mossel Bay Golf Club.

The reigning Nomads North vs South champion held his nerve to stave off a final round challenge from Ian Botha from Durbanville Country Club to triumph.

De Beer offset a lone bogey with two birdies for a 71 to finish one stroke clear of Botha, who also closed with a 71.

“I hit the ball unbelievably well from tee to green, but the putter was just ice-cold,” De Beer said. “My goal was to try and keep the mistakes to a minimum to protect the lead and it worked out for me.

“It’s such real honour to win the Individual Competition in this event, but I am also really proud of our team. We were third after the second round and we all had to work really hard in the final round to finish second. We were within a shot of the Louis 57 Junior Golf Academy at the halfway mark, but I guess those guys really wanted the win this year. They deserve the victory, but I’m really proud of how hard we fought as a team, as well.”
