Alfred Dunhill Championship Leaderboard: Shaun Norris Ahead

TWO WITHIN TWO

Although Chacarra misses his birdie putt, he remains two behind Norris with four holes to go. Also at 14-under is now Jayden Schaper after the South African talent takes advantage of his close approach to roll in a comfortable gain.

PARRY FROM RANGE

John Parry, who finished inside the top-5 at this event last time out, is up into a tie for third after draining a lovely left-to-righter at the par-4 14th. He was furthest away among his group, so that should give Chacarra and Schaper a bit of belief.

SCHAPER IN CLOSE

Schaper – one of those in the immediate chasing pack – flights a beautifully controlled wedge just past the flag from inside 100 yards and spins it back a little to rest a few feet away. Meanwhile, the likes of Branden Grace and Oliver Bekker have also strengthened their respective challenges via long-range birdie makes in recent moments.

DEFENDING CHAMP SETS CLUBHOUSE LEAD

Shaun Norris has enjoyed a superb final round at Royal Johannesburg to rocket up from a good finish into contention for the title. The big South African posted an incredible eight-under 62 to come back from seven shots behind and post 16-under.

His round featured seven birdies, a bogey and an eagle and that may have helped him defend the title he won at Leopard Creek in 2024… He has a two-stroke lead over the field and holes are running out.

WELCOME

Hello and welcome to Golf Monthly’s coverage of the Alfred Dunhill Championship final round (slightly earlier than advertised). To catch you up, if you’re just tuning in, there has been an awful lot of rain in the Johannesburg area this week and the tournament has suffered as a result.

Now down to a 54-hole event, the ADC is finishing as early as tournament officials could allow on Sunday.

Those who had begun their third rounds on Saturday have picked up where they left off and will finish on what is now a par-70 course after the par-5 sixth was shortened to a par-3 due to flooding on the fairway.

For what remains of the event, the leaders are on the 13th, we will bring you all of the key updates as they happen. And there’s just been a particularly important one to share. So, without further ado, let’s begin. Thank you for joining us!
