Following a course inspection this morning at Modderfontein Golf Club, the Ladies European Tour (LET) and Sunshine Ladies Tour (SLT) have confirmed that the 2025 Joburg Ladies Open will be reduced to 54 holes due to ongoing inclement weather and course flooding.
Heavy rainfall over the past 24 hours has severely affected course conditions, leading to waterlogging and the suspension of play yesterday. Despite the challenges, the golf course’s staff and greenskeepers are working tirelessly to mitigate the impact and prepare the course for play.
Play remains suspended as of this morning. A further inspection has confirmed that the course has not yet sufficiently recovered to resume safely. However, resumption of Round Two is scheduled for 10:00 today, pending final assessments and prevailing weather conditions.
All players are expected to be in position by 10:00. Due to the limited availability of carts, transportation will be provided only to the furthest areas from the bridges. All other players are kindly asked to walk to their respective positions.
The third and final round is planned to be played tomorrow, weather and course conditions permitting, spectators are encouraged to wait for further updates before coming out to cheer on their favorite players.
The safety of all players and the integrity of the tournament remain our top priorities. We appreciate the patience, understanding, and cooperation of players, officials, and spectators during this time.
