His first national call-up follows an impressive 2026 campaign. At the time of the selection announcement in August, GolfRSA reported that Wilsenach had climbed to sixth in its Open Rankings, recorded five top-10 finishes and reached the quarter-finals of the South African Amateur Championship. Those performances gave him strong credentials for a place in the national side
For Ekurhuleni’s aspiring golfers, his achievement offers encouragement that success at provincial level can open the door to representing South Africa.
As Wilsenach begins this exciting chapter, Ekurhuleni celebrates his selection and wishes him and his teammates every success in Tunisia.
Congratulations, Jonathan — proudly Ekurhuleni, proudly South African!
