Born & raised in South Africa I have always had a love for the natural world. I try to get away to explore the natural beauty of my continent as much as I can.

THE DAILY BREW ☕️ Last year, I had the privilege of visiting a remarkable new safari camp in the heart of one of Africa’s most untouched wilderness areas. Karangoma, an exclusive camp in Botswana’s Okavango Delta, was established in collaboration with the local community, offering an authentic and immersive safari experience. The landscape is teeming with elephants, zebras, and general game, while also providing excellent opportunities to encounter lions, leopards, wild dogs, and cheetahs. A stunning water channel meanders through the concession, making it perfect for mokoro and boat safaris, where one can capture breathtaking photographs of iconic Okavango birdlife and elephants feeding along the water’s edge. Discovering a new paradise for wildlife photography is always a thrill, and I can't wait to return! wild-expeditions.africa/our-…

This week, I am rooting for Jordan Spieth to capture the career Grand Slam. I have been a big fan of Jordan for a long time and do feel he is one of the most talented golfers on Tour right now. He is a magician, especially around the greens. I’m getting nostalgic thinking about how close together Jack and I accomplished this feat, and Jordan and Rory could do it in the same year, which has never happened! It would be amazing for our game and amplify what it means to win all four Majors. Good luck to all the Touring and PGA professionals competing this week at Quail Hollow! GP

Starship launch window opens at 5:30pm CST tmrw. I cannot explain how grateful I am that these last few launches have been later in the day. Getting up at 5am in the past was brutal (for me 😎💅)
