South Africa’s Past, Present and Future in Golf | Adventures In Golf Season 4

Diving into golf’s complex history, beautiful present and bright future in Cape Town on this Adventures In Golf, presented by United.

During this Adventure, we learn about the apartheid’s effect on golf, and play two incredible courses; one of which is the first club to open its fairways to all people regardless of race, gender or religion.

In the end, we were stoked to discover a healthy appetite for the game in players young and old. When the course layouts are this pure, it’s easy to understand why.

  1. Don't be in a hurry to leave South Africa EAL – I know stupidly rich people who've played just about every noteworthy, 5 star course on the planet, and they rate the courses along the Eastern Cape in S.A. as some of the best in the world. I've played those courses myself – they're the best tacks I've been fortunate enough to experience.

  2. I love the faux concern about the lack of diversity in South African golf. Also, oh never mind.

  3. Eric. If you come to SA again, get a hold of a gentleman by the name of Gary Player. A true legend in this country. Not only as a golfer.

  5. You should play desert canyon golf course in eastern Washington state, it’s truly a beautiful course.

  6. Just discovered this. Started playing golf at the Met in 1976. Then CCC for years after that. Clovelly is a magnificent course but even better when the South Easter is roaring. I remember the trees on the fairways growing at 45 degrees because of that! Miss that course.

  7. "I get to the top of my backswing and my insides congeal". This might be the best quote about golf I've ever heard.

  8. Look up a player called Papwa Sewgelum. Was a caddie who taught himself how to play. Beat Gary Player with 6 clubs but wasn’t allowed to collect his trophy as non-whites weren’t allowed in the Durban Country Club Club House. Fascinating story.

  9. Great video. love this series. Kind of sucks that black people don' t really get any good benefits because of the lingering effects of Apartheid. Glad that the country club featured accepts people of color. Step in the right direction.

  10. i grew up in a middle class family couldnt afford to play. i make pretty good money and cant afford green fees locally. maybe its not a underprivilege thing maybe the issue is the privilege

  11. Unfortunately apartheid has been turned around. Not geographically but financially and politically. White people born after apartheid are still struggling and being disadvantaged by economic laws because of it.
