Rising South African star moves up nine points in FedExCup standings into Top 20
NOVI, MI – 2Thumb putting grips are fast becoming the winning performance grip on the global golf stage as proven by a PGA Tour professional from Delmas, South Africa who finished T13 at THE PLAYERS Championship on Sunday. The rising South African star, who is following in the footsteps of fellow countrymen Louis Oosthuisen and Charl Schwartzel, has more than $7.6 million in total earnings, ten professional wins, and was a member of the International team for the Presidents Cup held at Quail Hollow Club in 2022.
Playing with 2Thumb’s SNUG SQ 30, the South African matched his previous best finish in THE PLAYERS Championship which was a T13 in 2023. He recorded rounds of 69, 70, 68 and 70 to finish at 11 under par. His previous best finish in 2024 was a second place at the American Express, La Quinta Country Club, in La Quinta, California.
