Here's how you can get Thulisa Keyi closer to the Miss World crown

Johannesburg – Miss World South Africa Thulisa Keyi is having a blast in Sanya, China as she prepares for the 68th annual Miss World pageant.  

As part of the pageant, contestants from all around the world are put through their paces through a number of challenges which will result in a top 30 being chosen – the first of which is the head-to-head challenge. 

The head-to-head challenge has made its return to the pageant for a second year after gaining popularity with audiences in 2017.  

IT WORKS AS FOLLOWS: 

Contestants have been divided into 20 groups. They will compete in challenges and each group will have one winner determined by public vote. Those 20 winners will then face off against each other for 10 spots in the Miss World final 30.  

Thulis Keyi, who is representing South Africa in the pageant, has been placed in group three along with Finland, Latvia, Venezuela, Sierra Leone and Wales.
