Nicole Becker, Suzette Venter, Kim Brookes – can they shine at the South African Women’s Open?
South African Women’s Open is scheduled for this July. 69 players will compete for the positions on the leaderboard.
Nicole Becker, Suzette Venter and Kim Brookes have confirmed to appear in the most prestigious event on the South African Golf calendar.  The event is sanctioned by Ladies European Tour.
Played at the beautiful Selborne Park Golf Club in KwaZulu-Natal, the event is expected to attract considerable attention from both local and international fans.
Nicole Becker is a rising South African player with great potential. She has played in local events and is now poised to take part in the most prestigious South African golf event. She competed in provincial championships during her amateur career.
One of her most memorable game was her win in the Eastern Cape Championship, held in February 2009. She scored a total of 154 points.
The first round went very well, with her scoring 76 points. The second round was a bit disappointing, with Nicole scoring 78.
Nicole Becker has greatly improved her game. She participated in a number of regional tournaments and performed well enough to be noticed by South African Women Golf Association.
However, recently her game has not been up to the par. In 2011, she failed to defend her title in the Champion of Champions event at Bryanston Country Club.
She slipped down to the third position with a final score of 157. Mercia Pretorius was the winner of the event with 151 points.
Nicole Becker is expected to perform well in the South African Women’s Open, given her experience in the local tournaments.
Suzette Venter is another shining star of the South African Women Golf. Her performance in the local events has been steady and she is expected to make a name for herself in the upcoming games. 
Suzette Venter is a well known player on the South African golf scene. She has won a couple of local tournaments. Recently, she qualified as a golf coach and now runs a golf academy.
With this background, Suzette Venter is a perfect candidate to contend at the South African Women’s Open.
This would give her the necessary exposure and hone her skills. Her performance is eagerly anticipated by fans and analysts alike.
Kim Brookes is another bright name in the South Africa, well known among many fans. Her game is steady improving and many experts predict a good game from her.
South African Women’s Open is an eagerly anticipated event. Says Anne-lee Pace, the South African golf star, “I am extremely proud that the South African Women’s Open is back on the schedule and that our leading professionals can once again have the chance
to compete against the world’s best on home soil”.
This is a co-sanctioned event, with Ladies European Tour and Women’s Professional Golf Association of South Africa jointly sharing the management.
The prize money is another attraction of the event. The bag of €260,000.00 will be fiercely contested by the top golfers from around the world.
The format will be 54-hole stroke play. The location of the event is the well known Selborne Park Golf Club. It is yet to be seen who will win the trophy and the prize money.
