Still very solid this Saturday in the suburbs of Johannesburg, Romain Langasque (photo) and Julien Brun remain more than ever concerned with the final victory at the Jonsson Workwear Open. They occupy sixth and tenth place respectively, two and four points behind the leader, the German Alexander Knappe. There will be sports!
After a delayed start to the 3rd round due to very heavy rain which fell very early in the morning on the Club at Steyn City , the players in this Jonsson Workwear Open 2023 had a blast with a multitude of very high scores. down. Thus, Alexander Knappe , the leader after 54 holes at -17 (199), offered himself a very nice 65 (-7) with eight birdies for only one bogey conceded.
His “dolphins” at -16 (200) also enjoyed themselves. If Nick Bachem , leader on Friday evening , was just content with a 69 (-3), the Swede Joakim Lagergren posted the card of the week, a huge 63 (-9) without error. Nice also the immaculate 65 (one eagle, five birdies) of South African Hennie Du Plessis , the former member of LIV Golf .
Just behind at -15 (201), we find Romain Langasque , sixth at two lengths behind Knappe thanks to his 69 (-3) of the day marred, alas, by two bogeys on his last four holes. The Azurean nevertheless remains in the game for the win within a very dense leaderboard where no less than fourteen golfers stand in just four points.
Among them, besides Langasque of course, let’s mention Julien Brun , tenth at -13 (203) after playing 70 (-2) in this Moving Day. Antibois, let’s remember, is still looking to open its counter on the DP World Tour , having already achieved three top 10s in just seven starts in 2022-23. Finally, note the very beautiful “Remontada” by Matthieu Pavon . Already author of a fantastic 65 on Friday, the Bordelais gained another 42 places in the standings with his 66 (-6). Here he is at the gates of the top 20 (21st at -11) in the company of Julien Guerrier (69 today).
