A record 288 entrants have teed it up today at the South African Open on two courses in Johannesburg as Louis Oosthuizen defends the title he won so emotionally last year.

Louis admittedly isn't the most motivated golf pro, he has just come off a month at home on his farm doing "as little as possible". Blessed what many consider the best swing in golf, you can't really blame a man who puts his family, his home well before playing golf, however when he is "on" as he was last year when he broke down and cried after winning his national championship, he is hard to beat.

Playing on the par 71 Firethorn and Bushwillow courses, a young American who qualified through Q school, Johannes Veerman shot -9 62 under preferred lies after heavy rain on Bushwillow to take a one shot lead in ideal scoring conditions.

Oosthuizen had a -6 65. Brandon Grace who is coming off a terrible 2019 had a -7 64 on Firethorn and says he is motivated to win the only event he hasn't won in South Africa.
