The 9th Durban Series Event was held for the first time at Southbroom Golf Club an hour and 30 min drive from Durban.
With the Series reaching the business end of the Season and only 3 Tournaments to play, it is now crunch time to fight for the top spot come the end of the Season.
Players were greeted by a windy day with no chance of rain. Getting off to a hot start Hayden Stone made 7 Pars and 1 Birdie on the front nine taking the early lead on 21 points 3 under par on his handicap. Linoshin Moodley playing in the same fourball was 4 points behind making the course look easy on a windy day where players from the first four ball hitting 7 irons to the 8th hole Par 3 and the last four ball hitting 5 irons and hybrids.
Making the turn Nick Schilz put pressure on Hayden when he made 3 drops in 4 holes leaving both on Even Par for the day. Coming down the last hole both were layed up on the Par 5 where both just needed to make par. Hayden hitting the green, setting up a birdie putt for the win. Seeing this Nick pulled his shot into the green side bunker leaving him a difficult up and down for the par.
Hayden Stone making Par moving him to -1 (37 Points) and the clubhouse lead. Trying to make up strokes Yuvashin needed to birdie the last 2 holes to catch Hayden. Unfortunately Yuvashin made 3 blackouts for the day to leave him tied 2nd with Nick Schilz.
Well played Hayden and winning your first Duckhook Series Event setting up a nail biting finish for player of the season and the Sunday league.
