Alfred Dunhill Championship R1

Burmester takes opening lead in South Africa

Dean Burmester carded a 7-under 65 to take the opening lead in the Alfred Dunhill Championship at Leopard Creek.

“What a back nine,” said the South African of his six birdies. Some of the best I’ve played in a little while so I’m happy to do that.”

He was especially pleased as he found the wind “very tricky”.

“We had up to three clubs at times and then we had nothing. And then it was moving around as well.

“The 15th hole, the tee-shot was downwind and then my ball mid-flight went into the wind.

“The third shot was kind of into off the left, into off the right, all over the place.

“And then we got to the 16th and there was no wind. But managed to deal with it.”

Austrias Lukas Nemecz lies in solo second place.

South Africans Deon Germishuys, Darren Fichardt, Branden Grace and Jaco Ahlers are tied in third place at 5-under alongside Frances David Ravetto.
