SOUTHBROOM AMATEUR CLASSIC 2021

30 August – 3 September

The 1st Men’s Southbroom Amateur Classic was played from 30th August- 3rd September 2021. It was a successful tournament played in typically unpredictable September conditions with lots of entertainment, food, drink, friendship and laughter involved!

Congratulations to the winners, the top 12 being:

Our 31st Southbroom Amateur Classic was once again a great success. There were 84 players  (less than usual due to COVID and the necessary sudden date change from July to August.) The players had a great time playing in good weather with the golf course playing really nicely and some excellent scores were produced.

To spice things up a bit, the wind blew really hard for the last nine holes on Friday .

In fact the four day tournament came down to the wire with Bo Bergqvist and Werner Duggan winning on a score of 161 points, only one point ahead of  father son team Rupert and Heinz Niebuhr.

Finishing third and fourth were Peter Leeming and Bob Carmichael winning the count out against Gary Purtell and Alan Hall on 159.

Fifth place and only three points behind first place was Dawie Rynners senior and Kobus de Villiers on 158 points. So a very exciting finish!

Alan Hall representing Hibiscus Brokers, our main umbrella sponsor had a great time with  seasoned player partner Gary Purtell of Realty 1 Southbroom who once again spoilt all the players on the 10th tee.

It was Alan’s first Classic and he and Gary enjoyed leading from the start, only to be pipped at the finish. So well done Alan Hall and Thanks Again to  Hibiscus Brokers Xavier Pollett and Terence Barkhuizen who were without doubt the best dressed pair and had the entire field in hysterics with their spirited antics.  Xavier has built a new wedding venue on the coast called Casa Alexandra at Beautiful East in Ramsgate and we are sure it will prove to be as exciting as they are. Thanks to Christer Solgevik for sponsoring the Allee Bleue wine in the players welcome bags.

Thanks to our Southbroom ladies helping starting each day.  We extend a massive thanks to all our all our sponsors and players who love and support Southbroom and the South Coast Due to Covid Regulations the club house functions were restricted this year, but Well done to Michelle & Thembi &  Club house Team for all the great meals  that continually flowed out.

Special thanks to Nick and family for the Potjie Evening!    Talented Singer Rickie and his mellow guitar provided a great background music vibe for the final evening  that rounded off the event so well.
