Golf Update: Steven O'Hara sets the clubhouse target at the Africa Open
The fourth round of the 2011 Africa Open ended in Louis Oosthuizen hands, except, it was Steven O'Hara who set out the early target on Sunday.
On the 9th of January, the Scott teed off to grab an impressive score of 66 in round 4. Reports from the East London GC state that the 30-year-old golfer displayed a rather improved version of golf as the rounds eventually
passed.
According to statistics, O'Hara managed to grab the highest score from the first round of the event while the lowest score appeared from the concluding stage of the tournament.
What may be called as a gradual improvement in form and strokes, O'Hara initiated his play with a 72 from the first round of the Africa open. Later on, a 71 appended the card that was followed by a more perked up collection of
 68 and 66.
O'Hara’s best finish from last year appeared at the Portugal Masters where he grabbed a decent 9th place on the leader board. The Scottish golfer carded a total of 274 strokes on the 17th of October and contained
a prize of € 51,825.00 after the play.   
As for the Africa Open, O'Hara collected an amount of € 41,933.33 after playing a total of 277 strokes. With Oosthuizen standing at the apex, O'Hara now begins his search for a maiden European Tour once more.
At the event however, the winning cult ended the 18th hole for a three way play-off. The winner played the extra hole with Chris Wood and Manuel Quiros from Britain and Spain who carded a par 4 as compared to Oosthuizen’s
3 stroke play.  
“I grabbed an eagle at the 15th and then the other at the playoff. The win felt just great” said Oosthuizen.
Coming back to O’Hara and the target, he set the pace to minus 15 after the last round of the tournament. Meeting the target, Robert Dinwiddie and Chris Wood carded a 15 under when there were two and four holes still to be played
by the golfers.
O’Hara adorned his score card with a total of 7 birdies and displayed an impressive blemish free card at the end of the fourth round. The birdies appeared from hole number 1, 3 and 8 from the outbound while the inbound gifted him
reds (birdies) from hole number 10, 11, 13 and 14.
With a minus 7 at day 4, the 30-year-old golfer carded a 34 at the outbound while the inbound resulted in a 32.
O’Hara managed to grab a share of T4 as the Africa Open concluded and stood with Jaco Van Zyl and Charl Schwartzel on minus 15 on Sunday.
