About
Picked up the game of golf as a youngster alongside his father, learning the game together. Was a member of the GolfRSA National Squad as an amateur. First victory came as an amateur at a Big Easy Tour event at Observatory Golf Club in 2016. Turned professional in 2019 and is a member of the Papwa Sewgolum Class, a Sunshine Tour initiative which provides financial and other support to players of colour who turn professional after graduating from the national squad. Won his first Sunshine Tour title at the 2022 SunBet Challenge Hosted by Sun Sibaya. Claimed his maiden DP World Tour title at the 2025 Investec South African Open Championship. He shared the 54-hole lead with Laurie Canter and they went head-to-head in a play-off after the final round was cancelled due to inclement weather. He beat Canter on the first play-off hole at Durban Country Club after getting up and down for birdie with a spectacular chip from just off the green.
