ZOLILE ACES HIS SECOND EP SENIOR TITLE

Zolile "Ace" Nqana, from Walmer Golf Club, retained his senior amateur title when he beat a strong field in the Eastern Province Senior Amateur closed strokeplay championship at the PE Golf Club on Sunday (February 17).

A total of 85 golfers from all over Eastern Province participated. The irritating morning drizzle did not hamper the play, as the scores reflected.

With places in the interprovincial team at stake in the last order-of-merit event, the front-runners battled it out. Joe Wood from Walmer Country Club produced the best morning round, a 75, followed by ex Northerns player, Rob Ross from the PE Golf Club on 77. A large group were one shot back on 78, including defending champion, Nqana

The afternoon round was a two-horse race for the crown between Nqana and Ross. The latter shot a 76 to finish on 153. Ace Nqana finished strongly with a two over par 74 to win on 152 (his winning score last year), with Joe Wood from Walmer Country Club third on 155.

Frank Blues, from the PE Golf Club won the B division, with Thys Wilson from St Francis Bay Golf Club as runner-up.  Another "Hill" player, Peet Ferreira, won the C division with Jackson Charles from Motherwell second.

The top ten championships scores were: 

152 – Z Nqana (78,74)

153 – R Ross (77,76)

155 – J Wood (75,80) B Machin (80,75)
