South African Wins Multichoice Golf Tournament

The second position went to Modiri Phuthego from Botswana while another South African, CK Kapambwe scooped the third spot. The two-day annual tournament which was played over 36 holes at Gaborone Golf Club started on Friday. Sixty-six local players, 33 South Africans and 21 Basotho participated in the competition.

Speaking to Sport Monitor, Rathebe said he did not prepare for the tournament. He explained that the trick in any golf competition is to stay on the fareware. He pointed out that it was the first time he played in Botswana and he is not used to the course. He said the course was fast, but he managed to play well due to the assistance he got from his caddie, Thapelo Mhlanga from Mochudi.
