Watch: Kiwi golfer forced to wear Bok jersey

New Zealander Ryan Fox was made to wear a green and gold jersey at the Nedbank Golf Challenge – here's why.

New Zealand golfer Ryan Fox had to wear a Springbok jersey after losing a Rugby World Cup final bet with his South African caddie.

The Boks beat the All Blacks 12-11 in the Paris decider to claim a record fourth global crown.

“This feels like blasphemy to me, to be honest,” said Fox, whose father Grant played fly-half for New Zealand.

“We had a little bet on the final, no money at all, but purely pride. If the Springboks won I had to wear this for three holes in the [Nedbank Golf Challenge] pro-am. We all know the result.”

The Nedbank Golf Challenge teed off at the Gary Player Country Club at Sun City today.
