Top Cup Tokai Classic 2019

Home country's World Cup Rugby win boost Shaun Norris to take the lead on R3

Shaun Norris from South Africa had a wonderful Round 3 on moving Saturday.
"My putts were hot" he recalled as he made 3 in a row birdie on both sides of his nine holes to score 7 birdies and 2 bogeys to mark 66 for R3.
His trustworthy long putter served him very well and made most of all the birdie chances to bring Shaun to solo leader with total of 10 under.

Shaun himself played rugby back home from 5 years old to 16. His rugby fever heated up yesterday as his home country South Africa has won against Italy by 49 vs 3. Shaun had great time watching the game at a steak house in Nagoya city.
"It was great that South Africa has won. To see the home country fellow athletes do so well, I must to my best too. Their fighting spirit gave me power and confidence."

His 4 years younger brother Kyle carries Shaun's bag during this week's tournament, they tag strongly to dedicate a victory for their loving father who has pasted away in June at age of 76.
"I don't want to get frustrated over a bogey and keep on believing myself and stay concentrated to win."

Brothers follows their father's teachings and will fight side by side supporting each other to make that 4th Tour victory come true on tomorrow's afternoon.
