Tyrone Holmes (born 15 April 1986) is a South African rugby union footballer. He currently plays for the Stormers in Super Rugby [1] and for Western Province in the Currie Cup and Vodacom Cup. He has previously played for both the Griquas and Cornish Pirates.
Holmes helped Western Province win the Vodacom Cup for the first time in 2012, he made 9 appearances and scored 2 tries. He also played his first Super Rugby game later in the season.[2] As a result of a loose forward injury crisis, Holmes debuted against the Lions on 30 June 2012. He started the game in the number 6 jersey and was replaced in the 52nd minute by Tiaan Liebenberg in a 27-17 Stormers win.[3]
After the 2012 Currie Cup Premier Division season, he joined Italian National Championship of Excellence team Petrarca Rugby for one season and then moved to Glasgow Warriors.[4]
