Big Easy Tour - Betway Big Easy Tour 2   

Marcel Steyn Scholtz was seven shots off the lead heading into the final round of the Betway Big Easy Tour’s second tournament held at Modderfontein Golf Club, but overturned that deficit in style to claim a three-shot victory for his maiden title.

In a drama-filled final round on the challenging Modderfontein track, it was Scholtz who stole the show. Following opening rounds of 73 and 68, the Highland Gate Golf and Trout Estate player was some way off Keenan Davidse who was 10-under after 36 holes. The 30-year-old Scholtz produced one of the finest front nine performances the Big Easy Tour has ever had; a blemish-free nine-under-par 27.

He followed that birdie up with further gains as he birdied the 10th to get his total to 13-under-par. With the chasing pack coming in strong and led by young gun, Yurav Premlal, Scholtz knew any mistake could and would be costly. He kept things tight from there on, making eight pars one after the other to see the job done.
