I’ve always loved sport. From an early age, I enjoyed playing rugby, cricket and tennis, but golf was always my favourite. From the moment I could walk, you would find me swinging a miniature golf club around the house. At one point I even turned my mother’s hair salon into my own private driving range by chipping her hair curlers down the salon passage.

From the hair salon, I graduated to the back garden and, finally, to the golf course, where some of my fondest memories are playing against my dad at our home club, Bloemfontein Golf Club.
