Brandon Stone was the best finisher amongst the South Africans playing the US PGA, the final Major of the year, at Bellerive in St Lous, Missouri.

He carded a 68, and ended on 8 under par, tied for 12th.

The tournament was won by American Brooks Koepka, who shot a final 66 to earn himself his 2nd major title of the season, after winning the US Open.

Keopka coped well with the pressure, as Tiger Woods pushed with a 64 in the final round to finish 2nd, and Adam Scott came close before a bogey at the last.

“Especially with Tiger making that run, basically, right at the same time when we were on, I think, 10 green, and then from 12, Scotty (Adam Scott) birdied 12 and 13, and it became a really tight race. But the shots I hit coming down the stretch were very good, we had a perfect number into 15, and then 16, I mean, I hit a laser right at the flag, that will probably go down as probably one of the best shots I’ve ever hit under pressure,” says Keopka.
