Red-hot Bregman brimming with confidence at SA Women's Masters

Red-hot Bregman brimming with confidence at SA Women's Masters

Five-time Sunshine Ladies Tour winner Stacy Bregman is brimming with confidence as she heads to the South African Women's Masters starting on Thursday at San Lameer Country Club on the KwaZulu-Natal south coast.

Bregman had no sooner wrapped up a second place finish in the Dimension Data Pro-Am on Sunday, when she declared herself ready to challenge for the SA Women's Masters title.

"I love the south coast and I always play well at San Lameer," said the current Investec Property Fund Order of Merit leader. "I haven't been to Durban in a year, so I am looking forward to go back.

It's likely that Bregman will improve her lead at the top of the order of merit this week, as third placed Ashleigh Buhai and Lee-Anne Pace, who won the SA Women's Open three successive times at San Lameer, are both abroad, campaigning on the LPGA Tour.

Bregman has been working hard on her game in the off-season with her new coach Grant Veenstra, and has made a few minor adjustments to her swing and other aspects of her game.

"I can see the changes starting to yield results and it's been a really good start for me this year," she said. "It means a lot to top the money list; it shows I've been playing really good golf this season and that I have been really consistent. All the changes I've been making, they've been paying off."

"It helps me a lot to play on the Sunshine Ladies Tour. I joined Grant at the start of the season and we've been tweaking my swing and some other things. It's satisfying to know I'm working on the right things when I put those changes under competitive stress and I come away with positive results. It also gives me confidence for the main tour." To have an order of merit is a big achievement in local women's golf according to Bregman.

The prize money of R2-million is the biggest purse on the Sunshine Ladies Tour since 2014. With Bregman gunning for the Order of Merit title, victory in the South African Women's Masters will put her in a very good position to win the money list.
