Headlined by Charlotte van Dyk’s striking wild dog (sold for nearly a quarter of a million rand), two fantastic days of golf, camaraderie and shared philanthropy made this year’s Kambaku Invitational another huge success. Many young lives changed by good people coming together.

Underwhelming start to Banyana’s Wafcon campaign. Team not at their best, playing in front of a few dozen at most. Watching with a commentator who clearly didn’t know any of the players on either side added to a forgettable evening. But more than enough talent to bounce back…

Vazinho and the Cape Verde fairytale. Scotland fans. Norway’s great tournament. French brilliance. Jude Bellingham. Full houses. Attacking football. Last hurrahs for Messi and Ronaldo. Late, late winners. Destination Mexico. Rodri and his worthy champions. Exceptional World Cup.

Scoreline suggests a close game; reality was anything but. Spain reduced Argentina to all but spectators; immense performance from the new world champions. Not a beautiful final, but deserving winners of what has been - on football terms - an exceptional World Cup. Bravo España.

When the marketing team thinks Argentina’s greatest ever player has been signed on for the half-time show… #DiegoMadonna

The last @dunhilllinks the last Shane Warne played was with @ryanfoxgolfer; they finished second after Warne played a blinder. A year later Fox won the professional tournament, and dedicated the win to Warney. Superb golfer, even better person, and a most fitting Open champion.

England on the rampage… which will only add to frustration at the semifinal approach. Much like Bafana, a team at their best going forward and expressing themselves. So good to watch when they play like this. What might have been.

So apt that the Junior Boks go back to back on the day we celebrate Madiba, who together with @cutmaker inspired the @LaureusSport movement that’s changed so many young lives through sport. “Sport speaks to youth in a language they understand”; Mandela’s words still ring so true.

Haunting moment of silence in Miami for Jayden Adams. Football has given us so much joy over the last month; heartbreaking day for the game today. Losing someone so young, bursting with talent and potential, is desperately sad. We’ll cherish the great memories. Rest easy, Jayden.

That’s why @EmbrosePapier9 is back in green and gold. Electric all season in a Bulls jersey, and straight into the same form on his return to the Boks. Which is very welcome just over a year out from a World Cup…

Early morning at Willard Beach for @TheBallitoPro. World class surfing, with a venue to match. And some serious local talent on show…

If the World Cup was based on supporters, we’d have had a Scotland-Norway final; still a decent chance of Norway being there. More than just one big centre forward to the team (although he’s some player). Mexico or England next up; go the Vikings.

Your feelgood sports story of the weekend…

[Sunshine Tour @Sunshine_Tour]

From quitting the professional game to take up coaching full time, to winning three tournaments in 18 months on the Sunshine Tour to get a DP World Tour card, to winning on the DP World Tour.

The story of 39-year-old DP World Tour rookie has been remarkable. 👏 🏆

If you’re Portuguese or Croatian, that will have taken at least a decade off your life expectancy. Mad rollercoaster of a game even for the general high drama of this World Cup. Ronaldo lives to fight another day…

[Dan Nicholl @dannicholl]

Not sure what was worse there - the VAR call to deny Tah’s goal, or Germany’s penalties in the shoot-out. Either way, there’s absolutely no work getting done in Paraguay for the rest of the week…

Mbokazi immense (and destined for great things). Ronwen still world class. And we did get out of our group after the Mexico false start. But can’t avoid the sense of what might have been with a little more adventure… Proud of this team nonetheless. Thanks Hugo. Bring on 2030.
