Egoli Golf Tour South Africa golfing tours Joburg Gauteng SA

Decade upon decade South Africa has produced some of the world's finest golfers. Four-time Open Champion Bobby Locke has been followed in amazing style by nine-time Major Winner and Grand Slam Titleist Gary Player. Double US Open and Open Champion Ernie Els is being kept company by fellow countryman and two-time US Open Winner Retief Goosen, thus extending the continuity of this wonderfully successful golfing lineage. TeamEgoli congratulate Cape Town's Trevor Immelman in joining this elite club by winning The Masters. With Rory Sabbatini and Tim Clark winning on a regular basis, could this possibly be South African Golf's equivalent of a Wildlife Big Five?!!!

Flawless rounds of 65 saw England’s Mark Foster and Scotland’s Marc Warren take a share of the clubhouse lead in the early stages of day one of the Methorios Capital Italian Open. TeamEgoli are more than impressed by the continuing rich vein of form being displayed by Boksburg's Hennie Otto - a great 65 gives him a share of 3rd place...BBC Golf>

In our continuing pursuit to offer existing and prospective clients the very best golf, holiday, and safari experiences South Africa has to offer, it is with great pride that we at TeamEgoli welcome Keith from Alive in Africa into our family-run business.
With the annual feast of exciting Nedbank Challenges at the Gary Player Country Club, Sun City, and co-sanctioned events between the European and Sunshine Tours like the Dunhill Championship at Johann Rupert's stunning hideaway, Leopard Creek, in the Kruger National Park, the South African Airways Open - played at a variety of outstanding venues throughout the country - and the newly created Joburg Open being broadcast worldwide by the SkySports team, these great events are proving to be yet another powerful advert for golf in sunny South Africa!

These great champions are being chased by a highly motivated and hungry pack of Young Guns who are already making their mark on the US, European and other Tours around the globe. Rory Sabbatini, Trevor Immelman, Darren Fichardt, Richard Sterne, Charl Schwartzel and Anton Haig are proven winners who will soon be joined by more exciting talent as the fallout from the explosive Super Nova that is South African golf, keeps gaining energy and creates yet more stars!

An impressive list of overseas players used the Sunshine Tour and its superb courses to launch their careers and become stars on the international scene. Great golfers like Nick Faldo, David Feherty, John Daly, Corey Pavin, Tom Lehman, Tommy Tolles and many others competed with high quality local stars Dale Hayes, Cobie Legrange, Hugh Baiocchi, John Bland, Bobby Lincoln, David Frost, Tienie Britz, Fulton Allem, Jeff Hawkes, Gavin Levenson and the Henning brothers, to name but a few! Zimbabweans Tony Johnstone, Mark McNulty, Nick Price and Simon Hobday also enjoyed great success on this tour.

The reasons South Africa has - and indeed still is - producing so many fine players, are simple:

The Climate: The weather on the Highveld is exceptional and golf can be played quite literally 365 days a year.
The Cost: Golf is affordable and accessible to most people.
The Golf Courses: Are championship quality, extremely well designed, have 'wall-to-wall' irrigation, are perfectly manicured and maintained and provide a fair test to players at all levels of proficiency.
Practice Areas: Almost all clubs have excellent facilities which include a full driving range with large practice chipping and putting greens. South African PGA professionals have a profound knowledge of the game and are on hand at all times to give advice and sort out the quirkiest of swings with a laidback approach that will make even the most nervous of pupils feel more than comfortable!
The Clubhouses: Are palatial and can host anything from a simple four-ball party to fields of up to 160. Luxurious, state of the art bars, restaurants, conference and banqueting facilities are serviced by highly skilled, friendly staff who wish to see their guests enjoy themselves and reserve future bookings!
