ZIMBABWEAN professional golfer Robson Chinhoi will be the only local player to tee off in this morning’s Gary and Vivienne Player Invitational tournament at Lost City Golf Course in Sun City, South Africa.
The top professional will be part of the 29 members invited for the high-profile two-day tournament.
Gary & Vivienne Player Invitational is a prominent charity golf tournament and social event hosted in South Africa to honour the legacy of South African golf legend Gary Player and his late wife, Vivienne Player.
Chinhoi fresh from making the cut at the Stella Artois Players Champs, where he finished on position 38, is in good form after making four cuts in a row.
During his last tournament Chinhoi carded rounds of 70, 68, 75 and 73 to pocket R19 250 for his efforts.
The Zimbabwean has participated in 12 tournaments in the Sunshine Tour this season making the cut seven times and missing out on five occasions.
Chinhoi is currently ranked 51st on the order of merit with 250.73 points going into today’s round.
Also in the field this morning is Zimbabwean-born Portuguese multiple Sunshine Tour winner Stephen Ferreira.
