PAUL AND SALLY DOWN THE FIELD
DESPITE EIGHT-UNDER-PAR TOTAL

Paul Lawrie and former LPGA majors winner Sally Little shot eight under-par 136 in the 36-hole Nelson Mandela Invitational Charity better-ball tournament at Arabella Country Club, South Africa over Saturday-Sunday.
Paul and Cape Town-born but now Florida-based Sally had only one bogey over the two rounds, scoring nine birdies, which was not bad going but so high was the standard of scoring that they finished last in the field of 10 pairs.
Sally, pictured right, who will be 55 next month, won 15 events over a 30-year span on the LPGA Tour, including three majors.
South Africans Retief Goosen and Bobby Lincoln won the title with an eagle at the second hole of a play-off after they had tied on 16-under-par 128 with compatriots John Bland and Alan Mitchell.
Sandy Lyle and his South African partner finished joint third with a pair 0f 65s for 130.
This was the seventh Nelson Mandela Invitational. Like all its predecessors it will raise thousands of South African Rand for charity.
