Erm, it's a marathon not a sprint and there's plenty more fish in the sea.

I'm sure that there's lot of other pithy phrases that will be equally unhelpful too.

None of the other South Africans are under par either.

Some pretty incredible selections there.  I would imagine Garcia and Donaldsons popularity is down to BE but quite surprised how many picked Leishman and Porteous for example.
