Gandy makes solid start in South Africa

Two rounds under par on Sunshine Tour

Isle of Man golf professional Tom Gandy has made a solid start to his latest tournament in South Africa.

He's playing in the Sunshine Tour Dimension Data Pro-Am at Fancourt along with the likes of home favourite Ernie Els.

He opened yesterday with a 4-under-par round of 68 and has followed up today on the links course with a 3-under-par score of 70.

That was helped by 3 birdies on the last 3 holes.

The Rowany player is currently tied in 21st position in a field of 180 competitors.
