The rugby star also plays golf.
“I took up golf too late! What I love about it is even if you hit a bad shot, you are excited to see if you can improve with the next one. It is also lekker, quite social. Something I can enjoy with friends and family,” he said exclusively to The South African.
He also expressed that he wants to have an impact on little boys and girls.
“I want to win many trophies in a Bulls jersey. But it is about more than being a good player. When I was younger, Victor Matfield stopped and let me get a photo with him. That was very special for me. I would like to have that same impact on a little boys and girls who are fans of the Bulls.”
