JADE BUITENDAG WINS KINGSWOOD OPEN

Jade Buitendag continued with his excellent form of the past few months with a victory in the Kingswood Open.  Jade had rounds of 72 and 69 to win by one stroke from Anton Prinsloo.  Jade had trailed first round leader Jovan Rebula by 4 shots and then recorded the equal best round of the afternoon in some tough and windy conditions to win.  Jade has been working together with Roger Wessels on some swing changes since joining KeNako at the beginning of the year and he is finally starting to feel comfortable with the changes that have been made.  Jade’s short game is simultaneously sharpening up and his greater confidence in his game reflects in his growing confidence.  Roger expects to see Jade shooting some low tournament scores in the coming months!  Well played Jade!

KeNako students enjoyed an admirable Kingswood Open, taking 6 of the top 10 positions.  Andre Nel, who equalled Jade’s afternoon 69 after a disappointing morning round of 76, tied 4th together with fellow KeNako student, 16 year old Franklin Manchest, who had 2 solid rounds of 73 and 72.  Cameron Moralee finished 6th on 146 (71, 75), Julien Sale 8th on 148 (76, 72) and Aidan Boon tied 10th on 150 (73, 77).

Jade and Andre are travelling to Port Elizabeth this coming weekend to play in the Eastern Province Open at the famous Humewood Golf Course, whilst the younger students are playing in the final Junior Order of Merit tournament of the year at George Golf Club.  We look forward to seeing some more excellent results this coming weekend!
