Golf Central

The Gary Player Country Club in Sun City, South Africa played host to the Nedbank Golf Challenge where twelve of the games top stars competed for a first competed for a first prize $1.2 million. Unfortunately my tips to do the business didn’t quite manage it…

Ernie Els @ 10/3: Els played solid golf and had been in contention but 72 in the final round wasn’t low enough to sustain his challenge. He finished in third place on 11 under par, five shots off the lead.
Retief Goosen @ 10/1: I thought that Goosen might find a bit of form and his starting price of 10/1 represented a bit of value. It didn’t, and Goosen finished in last place on 10 over par.

I should have advised you to back:

Trevor Immelman @ 12/1: Immelman was only included in the field after Sergio Garcia pulled out a few days before tee-off and he made the most of his opportunity. He started the final day in a tie for the lead with Justin Rose and survived a nervous finish of three successive bogeys to close on 16 under par and win by one stroke from an equally jittery Rose.
