1983–84 Southern Africa Tour
The 1983–84 Southern Africa Tour was the 13th season of the Southern Africa Tour, the main professional golf tour in South Africa since it was formed in 1971. Season outlineLocal golfers Mark McNulty, Gavan Levenson, and Tony Johnstone had much success at the beginning of the season. The first tournament of the year, the PAN AM Wild Coast, was won by McNulty.[1] The following week, Levenson won the Lexington PGA Championship, defeating Nick Price by three shots.[2] At the next event, the South African Open, Zimbabwe's Johnstone was victorious.[3] Johnstone would go on to win the following week as well at the SA Charity Classic.[4] It was Levenson, however, that would go on to win the Order of Merit.[5] The final two events of the year were won by foreign players. At the ICL International, Northern Ireland's David Feherty was victorious.[6] At the final event of the year, the Swazi Sun Pro-Am, American Rick Hartmann defeated Teddy Webber by one shot.[7] ScheduleThe following table lists official events during the 1983–84 season.[8]
