Fans around the country will be glued to their screens as the BSA Masters takes centre stage in February.

The BSA Masters takes place from 7-9 February at Wingate Park Country Club as the leading players attempt to play their way to one of the most prestigious titles on offer.

Three matches will be streamed across the sectional play sessions - four per day - with the BSA Youtube Page the home for all viewing. Additional coverage will be provided by the host venue while the Junior Masters will also be streamed.

On Friday, Esme Kruger and Fran Baleri kick off the action as two players with international experience go head to head. The second session is another match of international quality with Bridget Herselman against Marizelle Rousseau in a race to 21.

Session 3 switches to the Men’s action as CP Mathewson attempts to fend off the threat of Andrew Sterley. With both players in form, it should be a thrilling contest.

The day is rounded out with a titanic clash between Wayne Rittmuller and Niksa Benguric. Both have established themselves as players with the highest pedigree over the past few years and will have the label of the match of the day given the stakes.

On Saturday, viewers online will get to watch the defending champion Jason Evans against SA Open runner-up Paul White in the first session of the day. It promises to be a fixture with the highest level of shot-making before the attention turns to the hopes of Wilson Malobolo against Terrance McGlynn.

Session 7 focuses on last year’s Women’s champion, Esme Haley, against the reigning Junior Masters champion, Lezandri Hildebrand, in what can be described as a battle of experience vs youth.

The final session the day is likely to draw the largest crowd as two Proteas face off for a vital sectional play win.

Jax Janse van Rensburg returns to the BSA Masters and will no doubt be looking to cement her place with a good showing. Western Province’s Anneke Scheepers is a player who needs no introduction given her excellent performances at the Commonwealth Games.
