South Africa’s Danielle du Toit is still in the hunt for back-to-back victories on the Sunshine Ladies Tour as she heads into the final round of the Jabra Ladies Classic just one shot off the lead at Killarney Country Club.
On a wet and rainy day in Johannesburg, Du Toit signed for a second round of 70 to climb to five under par overall.
She is one shot behind the leading quartet of France’s Lois Lau (67), Czech Kristyna Napoleaova (71), Britain’s Jess Baker (68) and Scotland’s Lorna McClymont (68).
“The conditions were quite challenging with the rain and wind that made life interesting. It was important to keep the ball in play and be patient. I wish I putted a little bit better, but I struck the ball nicely and stuck to my gameplan which delivered a good result. I did leave a few shots out there, but all in all I’m happy with where I am in the tournament, and hopefully tomorrow I go a bit lower,” said Du Toit.
After winning on the Sunshine Ladies Tour last week and now contending again, Du Toit is pleased to see the results of some hard work she’s put into her game.
“My game is in a good place. I’m happy the hard work is paying off. I’m finally starting to see the results of about six months of really hard work. I’m excited and it bodes well for the rest of the year.”
With more rain expected for Friday’s last round, Du Toit says she’s determined not to let the weather put a damper on her game.
“Whether it rains or the wind blows it doesn’t really matter. The game stays the same – just hit the ball on the fairway, hit the ball on the green, hit the putt. If it comes off or not, I’m going to go out there and give it my all and have fun,” Du Toit said.
