A count out on 107 points deemed Workwear Depot second and Finsch Diamond Mine third. Team Multotech Manufacturing was fourth on 105 points and Team Brinks Global was fifth on 104 points on a count out.

All historical KGC stableford records, individual and betterball, were shattered in the final round of the Konica Minolta Business League on Wednesday afternoon. The covey in which it all happened included OJ Maimane and Duece Leburu (Team OJM Consultants) and Tinus and Hermus Venter (Team KGC). And, it was Deuce Leburu who delivered the El Nino like devastation. Playing off a 15, and never having broken the 80 barrier, he unleashed a personal best 74 gross (36, 38) - a net 59 - for a sum total 49 individual stableford points. In the team event his partner OJ Maimane still managed to add an additional four points, a full return therefore, of 53 betterball points.

In the IPS for the day Deuce Leburu was first, with Kevin Collings second on 41 points and Barend Burger third on 39 points.

In the team event, the BBS, OJM Consultants were first with Burgers Brokers second on 45 points.
