spanned a remarkable forty year period\, beginning in 1925 when he first represented NSW whilst still at school. His first Australian Amateur Championship victory in 1930 was the start of a great career and  heralded the beginning of a golden decade for Australian golf. In spite of losing my father just after I left school\, I was privileged to be involved with the Royal Sydney Golf Club for twenty years and have many stories to share with you.”\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default”
