Jaco Van Zyl takes over lead in Nedbank golf challenge

Overnight leader Henrik Stenson suffered the embarrassment of a complete air shot in the early stages of Saturday’s third round of the Nedbank Golf Challenge at Sun City.

Stenson had already seen his one-shot lead wiped out by playing partner Jaco Van Zyl’s opening birdie when he attempted a delicate flop shot from just off the second green, only for his club to slide straight under the ball.
