On fire in the South African Open presently, 8 under after 15 holes today, currently leading by 2 shots

going well, but unsurprisingly Sky have decided to interupt coverage, to show highlights from an American tournament from yesterday.

Thats Sky with 6 sports channels, 4 of which are showing highlights or old documentaries.

Queer system they have

Birdied the 17th to go 12 under. Two shots clear. 9 under for his round.

Although Rory McIlroy is playing this afternoon so I expect him to up there with him at least.

Awesome round of golf from Stormy.
Good luck for satday n sunday.

If i remember rightly he got the last place to qualify for this seasons tour card. Would be a remarkable achievement if he went on to win it.

lets just hope to doesn,t do his "self implode" final round.

What an experience for storm.

Whatever happens now.

Goes into tomorrows last round 3 shots ahead and partners Rory mcilroy.

He will do remarkably well to win even from this position. Either way a brilliant display.

Come on Stormy !!!!!!

Should be an entertaining duel between Stormy n Rory.

Has been in the lead after round 3 three times before, hopefully this time he can turn it into a win, mind you would be shitting yourself playing McIlroy

Mcilroy got two shots back afyer first two holes. He is a fucking machine.

Storm ahead by jusy one now.

Two clear now. Three ahead of third and 5 the field.

Three players in this now. Another young english player joins mcilroy two behind.

Meanwhile over ay the cricket england 67 for 1 after 10 overs. Roy geys 50 off 35 balls.

Stop this, because you know for a fact that with

A) the England one-day team and

B) Stormy

It's not going to end well! See also c) HUFC....

You are probably right.

Storm only one ahead now but its the thr other guy smith who is on fire.

Cricket going well still.

he is doing his best to throw it away

Co leader with Rory going down the last hole.
Great effort whatever happens.

fantastic effort but the chances he has had to keep ahead and he has missed some putts while all the others have took them, should be a good pay day for him what ever the outcome

Get in there Stormy wins.

Can't quite believe what I've just seen. Five wood off the tee and a putt that almost deserved to win any tournament. Well in.

Well done Graeme chuffed to bits for him . Bring all that winnings back to the 'Pool' and spend it in and around the town.

Despite the actually prize money for winning being slightly disappointing, compared to many of the other tournaments, a few things Storm has gained from the victory are:

5th in the race to Dubai.

Potentially moved up to 130 in the world. Another good tournament could get him inside the lucrative top100.

Exempt now for 2 years, meaning he wont have to worry about qualifying till 2019.

If he can sustain the start, he may gain automatic qualifying for the open.

He is only £40k behind his total earnings for 2016, and its still January.

just to explain the first point, he guy that finished second at the previous tournament, the hong kong open, earned more than Storm did for winning.

Will be able to pay for Liverpool Season Tickets for rest of his life now.
