This week, the European Tour bandwagon rumbles back into South Africa's third-largest city for the Volvo Golf Champions event, an elite gathering of 35 tournament winners, that will usher in the new year.
Who knows what Mother Nature will decide to unleash this time but, as Jamieson proved at the start of December, every cloud has a silver lining. In the first event of the 2013 season, played before 2012 had even finished, Jamieson captured his maiden tour title in the Nelson Mandela Championship which was reduced to 36 holes due to the kind of biblical downpours that would have had Noah working himself into a lather.
