Brandon STONE

About

Won his third DP World Tour title in style courtesy of a stunning final round of 60 - where he narrowly missed a putt for a 59 - at Gullane to clinch the 2018 Aberdeen Standard Investments Scottish Open, a Rolex Series event. Graduated from the HotelPlanner Tour in 2015 and fulfilled his early promise when he made his DP World Tour breakthrough early in 2016, winning the BMW SA Open before adding a second title at the end of that year at Leopard Creek by winning the Alfred Dunhill Championship. Won on home soil in 2021 at the Limpopo Championship, co-sanctioned by the HotelPlanner Tour and Sunshine Tour – his fourth victory on his home circuit. Was earmarked as a future star early on during a stellar amateur career – particularly in the American collegiate ranks where he was named the 2013 NCAA Freshman of the Year while representing the University of Texas. Comes from a strong golfing background – his father, Kevin, is an experienced Sunshine Tour player and the national coach for the South African amateur junior team, while his grandfather, Sam, also played for his country. Counts Ernie Els as a close family friend and has frequently benefited from advice from the four-time Major winner.
