It was two weeks into 2000 and my first time in South Africa.
A fortnight earlier I had stood in darkness, apart from the lights of one or two motor vehicles, on the first tee of the Tonga Golf Club and at the stroke of midnight I super-proudly hit the first shot on a golf course in the new Millennium.
Soon after I journeyed from the eastern Pacific Ocean shoreline in Australia, ...
