Knysna Golf Club Championship a winner

GOLF NEWS - What an incredible showcase of talent at our 2024 Knysna Golf Club Championship!

We had 172 players over two days and we appreciate all the support our members have given this event.

A round of applause for James Coetzee for acing the 12th hole with a spectacular hole-in-one! And let's not forget the dramatic finish with a two-hole playoff, culminating in sudden death on the 18th hole; it was everything you could wish for in a club championship!
