The 2019 Southbroom Amateur Classic was once again a wonderful golf tournament. A big thanks goes out to Barry Elliot and Hibiscus Brokers for their on going sponsorship of the Classic. Barry and his guests put up a very good performance with Red Shuttleworth and Chris Naidoo finishing in 8th place tied on the same score in 9th place as Richard Mills and Mike Anthony. There were 144 men enjoying a great week of golf in a combination of really easy and really tough conditions. In the end a very good win for the Fox brothers Greg and Andrew who made 43 points on the last day in the worst conditions. They finished on 171 points, three ahead of past champions Robbie and Melchior Botha who are always competitive, especially in windy conditions coming from Mossel Bay. Last years champions Ig Erasmus and Rudie Venter ended up 3rd with 164 points closely followed by a number of teams so it did go down to the wire. The Classic was enjoyed by all and very festive in the evenings with music by our local band The Legends and on the final two nights Winston Smile got everyone rocking. The food and drink was special making for a wonderful vibe.
