The Master inspires students at the GARY PLAYER SCHOOL FOR CHAMPIONS
2012 students were recently treated to a 45min presentation on all things golf by SA legendary multiple major champion, Gary Player.
The wide-eyed youngsters were given no illusions about what it takes to become a champion as the Little Master discussed and demonstrated aspects of the swing, golf fitness and the mental dimension.
After the awesome experience, the students all agreed that it was a day they will never forget!
