2019 GNGU Mid Am Open

The 2019 GNGU Mid Amateur Open was held on 3 March at Waterkloof Golf Club.

The course was in excellent condition and after the first 18 holes, Craig Collins, Dino De Abreu and Neil Rathmann had all shot 69 (-3) and with a pack of 7 only 3 or less off the pace, it was always going to be an exciting second round.  Ryan Dreyer from Killarney Country Club managed a fantastic 68 in the second round, leaving him on 139 (-5) for the tournament and winning the trophy by 3 shots ahead of Waterkloof Golf Club’s Jacques van Tonder.

Thank you to Waterkloof Golf Club, its Committee, Management, staff and members for giving up the course for the day and your fantastic hospitality.
