Bloemfontein -  The top two golfers on the Sunshine Tour Order of Merit have qualified for the upcoming Nedbank Golf Challenge as the final field for the R65 million tournament nears completion.
 
The first and second ranked players on the tour’s Order of Merit as of Monday 25 November are guaranteed a place in the 30-man field at the Gary Player Country Club from 5-8 December.
 
This means a debut in the event for South Africans Darren Fichardt and Dawie van der Walt.
 
Fichardt is currently top of the local Order of Merit with R4.4 million in earnings, followed by Van der Walt on R2.8 million.
 
Fichardt secured his place in the field with a season that featured a victory in the Africa Open and second in the Tshwane Open, both of which are co-sanctioned by the European tour.
 
Van der Walt’s second-place on the Order of Merit has been built largely around his victory in the Tshwane Open earlier this year.
