Branden Grace
Grace is back as the last South African winner of the Nedbank Golf Challenge in 2017.
He will make his ninth Nedbank Golf Challenge appearance this year and has an enviable record in Africa’s Major.
In his eight previous appearances he has a win and finishes of third, fourth, eighth and 11th.
His 2017 triumph at Sun City came in the same year that Grace made men’s Major Championship history with a third round of 62 at The Open to set a record for the lowest round in a Major.
His dream season came in 2012 when he won four times on the DP World Tour. He has won nine times on the DP World Tour and twice on the PGA Tour.
In 2015, he became the first International player in Presidents Cup history to win all five of his matches.
