On Saturday Shane Arthur proved to be neither a Schwartzel nor a Kaymer as hung on to his lead to take the 2015 New Year’s Cup sponsored by Workwear Depot, despite the handicap cut and the pressure of the occasion. Arthur’s final round 36 points gave him an overall aggregate 82 points that left him four clear of the field.
William Orton was second on 78 points with Christo Swanepoel third on 76 points.
Round one saw Dries Mostert (41), Nico Ross (40) and Alan Doherty (40) accorded first to third place respectively. Round two saw Rudi Kruger (42), Stan de Beer (40) and Stafford Salo (39) the top three players. 

Hermus Venter returned a one under par gross 35 for 22 points to take the Friday Flamingo Casino Meat and Slots Niner. Susan Alexander was the runner up on 21 points. Young Fareez Alexander was third on 20, with Tinus Venter fourth on 19 and Darian Alexander fifth on 18.
