Compleat Golfer hosted their annual golfing awards gala dinner at County Club Johannesburg last night, and SA’s number one amateur woman golfer, Nobuhle Dlamini received WGSA’s outstanding woman golfer of the year award.    Looking absolutely stunning in her black evening dress, Nobuhle was delighted to be honoured in this way.  

WGSA explained that they were cognisant of the fact that players from beyond our borders who competed regularly at our events were having difficulty with regard to their golfing profiles because they were not included on the WGSA Player Rankings.  The reason for their exclusion was because they were not eligible to represent South Africa internationally as per SASCOC requirements.  In January 2011, it was agreed to include them in order for them to be ranked.  In less than two years, Nobuhle Dlamini climbed to the top of these rankings and in October 2012 became WGSA’s top ranked player, toppling Kim Williams who had been our number one player since November 2010.  In addition to clinching the prestigious Sanlam SA Women’s Amateur Stroke Play Champion title at Umhlali Golf Club in 2012, she has added numerous provincial titles to her list of achievements.

 “The Compleat Golfer Award is held in high esteem by all our amateur women golfers and this exceptionally hard-working and dedicated player certainly deserves this Award” said WGSA President Cynthia Rayner.
