When Louis Oosthuizen was asked how he managed his game to win the 2010 Open at St Andrews in blustery conditions he said " I grew up playing in the wind. The more it blows the more of an advantage I feel it gives me"
Well it was blowing again at the South African Open in Johannesburg today and he tied for the low round of the day with -4 67 to take a 3 shot lead at -14 over three golfers including his team mate Charl Schwartzel ,England's Matt Wallace and Zambian Madalitso Muthiya all at -11, with a group of eight players then six shots off the lead.
Oosthuisen is looking for his first win in 3 years, he has never won his country's Open Championship.
Four-time Major Champion Ernie Els has won this event 5 times and he was in the group at -8, alongside fellow South Africans Branden Grace and Jbe Kruger, Scot Robert McIntyre, German Bernd Ritthammer, Dane Jeff Winther, Brazilian Adilson da Silva and Zimbabwe's Mark Williams.
