Team South triumphs at The Global Challenge
It was all happening at the Hermanns Golf Club this past weekend! Professional women golfers teed up on Saturday morning for Round 1, and Round 2 on Sunday concluded with Team Southern Hemisphere holding up the Ralph Walton Trophy, winning it back from last year’s winners, the Northern Hemisphere.
There was no prize fund at this international tournament. The dynamic professionals who participated used their social media platforms to raise funds for local charities in the tfBangTheDrum campaign. Over R100 000 has been raised so far.
You can still pledge on The Global Challenge website. Just go to the global challenge.co.za and click on ‘Please Pledge’. The beneficiary is the Full Tummy Fund, which will assist local charities associated with The Global Challenge – Learn to Earn, Just Care Aftercare and the Overstrand Association for People with Disabilities (OAPD).
“A huge thank you to the people of the Overstrand for supporting us, and to all the sponsors and partners who made this event possible,”‘said Tania Fourie, founder and organiser of The Global Challenge.
“The public was privileged to have world-class golf on our doorstep and all the professional women golfers have promised to return in 2019. Dates for The Global Challenge 2019 will be announced shortly.”
