It’s all happening on the tees at Leopard Creek

Thriston Lawrence will play in his 13th tournament this year when he tees off at this week's Alfred Dunhill Championship at Leopard Creek.

The two-time reigning South African amateur champion and current holder of the Lytham Trophy, joins former champion, Charl Schwartzel and 2010 open championship and runner-up in the 2012 Masters Tournament, Louis Oosthuizen.

England’s Danny Willett who carded a final round 66 to win the Nedbank Challenge in Sun City by four shots, will also be in action this weekend.

Lawrence who celebrated his 18th birthday last Wednesday, will be the youngest player on the greens and the only golfer from Mpumalanga. Richard Sterne, Pablo Martin, Goerge Coetzee, Branden Grace, Thomas Aiken, Hennie Otto, and Francesco Molinari will also compete for the €237,750 prize money.
