Dean Burmester seeks strong performance at PGA Championship in North Carolina
South African Dean Burmester will make his debut at Quail Hollow on Thursday during the first round of the PGA Championship in Charlotte, North Carolina. Image: Stingers GC Inclement weather might have hampered his preparation for the PGA Championship, starting on Thursday, but South African Dean Burmester will look for four days of 'good golf' to give him a shot at the title. The second major of the year takes place at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, North Carolina, and for the LIV golfer, it presents an opportunity to do well in his debut at the course. He recently told Golf Digest that he's only played the lengthy course on PlayStation as he braces for his baptism of fire. Video Player is loading.

Advertisement Next Stay Close ✕ After finishing tied twelfth at last year's tournament at Valhalla alongside current Masters champion Rory McIlroy, Burmester says he feels in good form coming off some strong rounds as part of the Stinger GC team on the Saudi-backed tour. 'I am carrying decent form coming in here and yes, it is the strongest field, but it only takes four good days to lift the trophy,' Burmester said. 'That is my expectation. I want to put four good days together and see where I am at at the end (of it). After traveling over multiple time zones, I probably needed the week off and needed the rest. I feel pretty good actually. Time to LEVEL UP ✅ @PGAChampionship Our very own Burmy is representing us at this years #pgachampionship 🇿🇦 Let's get behind our boytjie! #golf — Stinger GC (@stingergc_) May 13, 2025 'I've put in a lot of work, so I am excited to get going come Thursday.' Two weeks ago in South Korea, Burmester holed out with a seven iron, hitting an ace during the LIV event, and he will be hopeful to replicate that this week. He says plenty of people told him ahead of the major that Quail Hollow will suit his game. He can hit a ball long off the tee box and will be eager to test himself with his driver in hand. A dominant, record-breaking win. Relive Rory McIlroy's 8-shot triumph at the 2012 PGA Championship. #PGAChamp — PGA Championship (@PGAChampionship) May 13, 2025 'Having played 18 holes here, I do think so (that it suits his game). The course setup is very generous off the tee, and pretty wide with some thick rough, and firm greens. So, it kind of suits the long hitters and I don't hit it too short. So, it will suit my game. 'We all want to perform well in the majors. So, there will always be pressure. I don't think there is more pressure compared to most tournaments. It is one of the big four in the history of golf, so that is the only added pressure.' Burmester is joined by fellow South Africans Christiaan Bezuidenhout, Erik van Rooyen, Thriston Lawrence, Garrick Higgo and Daniel van Tonder at the tournament. Masters champion McIlroy, world number one Scottie Scheffler, and LIV South Korea champion Bryson Deschambeau are amongst the favourites to win.

South Africa's Rising Golf Stars on the Global Stage
However, a new generation of talented golfers is emerging from this nation, ready to make their mark on the global stage. Leading this exciting wave is Christo Lamprecht, whose remarkable skills and achievements have already turned heads worldwide. Standing at an impressive 6'8″, Christo Lamprecht is not just making a big physical impression on the golf course – his talent is equally towering. At just 24 years old, Lamprecht has already achieved what many golfers dream of accomplishing in a lifetime. His journey began with a historic win at the South African Amateur Championship at the remarkably young age of 16, making him the youngest champion in the tournament's storied history. Lamprecht's collegiate career at Georgia Tech was nothing short of spectacular. He earned All-American honours three times, was named the 2024 Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year, and claimed three collegiate titles. His dedication and skill eventually earned him the top ranking in world amateur golf before he decided to turn professional in 2024. Dean Burmester has established himself as one of South Africa's most exciting players. Known for his powerful drives and aggressive playing style, Burmester has accumulated an impressive 12 professional wins, including four European Tour titles and ten Sunshine Tour victories. His breakthrough came with his win at the 2017 Tshwane Open, followed by the 2021 Tenerife Open. Burmester's success has continued with his transition to LIV Golf, where he claimed the 2024 LIV Golf Miami title. With a career-high world ranking of 55, Burmester's consistent performances in major tournaments showcase his resilience and elite skill level. For fans tracking live odds and performance analytics, platforms like FanDuel Sportsbook provide an engaging way to stay connected to Burmester's journey. Justin Harding has made his mark through strategic play and a precise short game. Two European Tour triumphs—the 2019 Commercial Bank Qatar Masters and the 2021 Magical Kenya Open—that showcase his ability to compete at the greatest levels are among his career highlights. Harding's adaptable playing style has brought him success across multiple continents, with seven Sunshine Tour wins and two Asian Tour titles. His impressive 12th-place finish at the 2019 Masters confirmed his ability to perform on golf's biggest stages. Like many South African players, Harding has also expanded his horizons by participating in LIV Golf. South African golf stands at an exciting crossroads. The established legends continue to inspire while a new generation of talented players emerges. Christo Lamprecht leads this new wave, but he's far from alone. The nation's rich golfing tradition, combined with excellent development programs, ensures that South Africa will remain a formidable force in global golf for years to come. With players like Lamprecht carrying forward the legacy established by Player, Els, and others, South African golf's future looks exceptionally bright. The blend of power, precision, and mental toughness that characterises South African players continues to translate into success on the world stage, writing new chapters in the nation's proud golfing story.

View 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT63 S E Performance 4-Door Interior Photos
Read the full review The 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT63 S E Performance looks much the same as its nonhybrid predecessor, but it's got a few new tricks to show off. The buttons on the center console are arranged in a V, and there are eight of them. We suspect this is some kind of message. As the most powerful series production Mercedes ever, the GT63 S E Performance is available with some outrageous color options. Nappa leather will set you back at least $2160. If you'd like the AMG matte carbon-fiber trim, that's $2850. A Burmester sound system is standard, which is nice given that the E Performance's base price is $196,050. The AMG Performance steering wheel in nappa leather is also standard. Though this color is a personal choice. You can shift the nine-speed automatic with the paddle shifters, but the transmission does a great job picking gears all on its own. There are a lot a settings to customize—basic drive modes along with specifics like stability control, manual or automatic shifting, and exhaust sound. Scrolling through the settings is quite intuitive. In the car's more aggressive drive modes, the engine charges the battery as you drive. Hopefully you don't often need to use the Slippery setting in a car with 831 horsepower. Keep going to see more photos of the GT63 S E Performance.
