Then after being allowed to play in the Natal Open, he demolished a top field, BUT was presented with his trophy in the rain while the others players watched from the clubhouse igniting a worldwide backlash leading to South Africa being banned from the Olympics, whilst Papwa became the symbol of the anti-apartheid sport movement. Again allowed to play in the Natal Open he beat the world number 1, Gary Players, head-to-head, only for the apartheid government, after a failed assassination attempt, to ban him from all tournaments in South Africa, and then withhold his passport to prevent him playing abroad. This book is written in a popular, conversational style. It's easily understood by those who don't know much about golf, yet the book's message is of hope and perseverance and in so doing, creates a black golfing hero to inspire the youth."-- $c Page 4 of cover. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 257-262). 600 10 $a Sewgolum, Papwa Sewsunker, $d 1928-1978. 600 17 $a Sewgolum, Papwa Sewsunker, $d 1928-1978. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01618954 650 0 $a Golfers $z South Africa $v Biography. 650 0 $a Golf $x Political aspects $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Sports and state $z South Africa. 650 7 $a Golfers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00944774 650 7 $a Sports and state. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01130564 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317014658.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=98B1E21AFFE911EBB6EAFDEE22ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
