The good‚ the bad and the ugly of 2016

The year 2016 had its fair share of drama with many memorable events and incidents that left both a bitter and sweet taste on many South Africans’ mouths.

Van Niekerk broke a 17 year-old record to win the 400 metre final‚ while Semenya won the 800m.

By contrast‚ 2016 will go down as an annus horribilis for the national rugby team‚ the Springboks‚ who notched up a string of defeats‚ including a particularly humiliating 20-18 loss to Italy. — Tiso Black Star Group Digital
