The former Springbok and Western Province flank talks about his love for golf, his favourite courses and who would be in his ideal fourball.
When did your love for golf start and how long have you been playing?
I started very young when we were staying in Pretoria. My father was in the Air Force and at that time there was a golf course close to their base. I continued playing golf in my varsity days in Stellenbosch and would play the course there quite often.
What do you enjoy most about golf?
To be out in nature is probably the big thing for me. I am a bit of a nature freak and really enjoy spending time outdoors. The game also allows you to challenge yourself and it provides you with an opportunity to be active. I have been fortunate enough to play at some of the big social events like the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland and the Dimension Data Pro-Am at Fancourt – it gives you the chance to meet some incredible people and form friendships off the course.
What is your handicap?
I play off a 10.8.
