Brandon Grace

[fundy]

An amazing effort for Grace to win back to back, so soon after getting his card back at Q-school, I expect most hadnt even heard of him a few weeks ago but looks like being another solid player in the South African ranks

Really held his nerve there, considering the missed putt on the 18th.. Looks like a solid player...

Great victory for him, especially in the playoff, against what must be two of his heros, both major winners also. He held his nerve well and made a great bird on the playoff hole, hats off to him.

Looks a really good player and South Africa seem to be knocking out some quality of late!

That chip he hit on the 18th in regulation after waiting for Schwartzel to go cross country was brilliant. Glad he held on to win after missing the putt.

That would be colsaerts who went x-country not schwartzel......& not to take away from his win but it was gifted him by els and goosen in the play off.

They both made pars, he made a birdie. Hardly a gift, that hole had regular bogies and double bogies all week.

He showed a lot of bottle......strange chipping technique though

P.S Welcome to the forum

Of course you're right, no idea why I said Schwartzel

 

[Tignanello97]

Thanks for welcome. True they both made pars but els had to bunt his second 50 yards out of thick rough and goosen had his third get caught on the top tier.....yes he hit it fat....but unusual for him. That hole also had a lot of birds & eagles during the week.......even paddy managed a bird on it in the end!!
Still well played to Brandon ....big hitter as well

 

[HomerJSimpson]

He does look a good player. Will be interesting to see how he progresses outside his home turf

 

[Tignanello97]

Yes he'll be teeing up with the big boys in the desert swing now....time will tell.

 

[jasondransfieldgolf]

I hope he does very well. I know his mind coach and he is over the moon as you would guess!

 

[McTear]

it is a great result for him. he does stay about 1 mile from that course though, he has probably played it 100 times. Still, winning a playoff against the goose and els takes some bottle..!

Had to look twice to make sure thread was not about Brendon Grace the Irish comedian.
