When did you start playing, and where?
When I was about seven-years-old I used to hack around after my dad when we were living in New Zealand. I can't remember what course it was but I didn't really start to play properly until moved to Hong Kong in 2007.
How often do you play?
I would like to play every day but unfortunately I can't. I average a game a week during the racing season and usually play at Fanling. [HKPGA pro] James Stewart is a good friend of mine and I play with him a lot. I also play with some of the other jockeys, a couple of trainers and many of the owners. There's always someone looking for a game.
What's been your best ever round?
Being an athlete I think I should be better at golf than I really am! My best round was when I shot 81 on the Eden Course at Fanling. All I had to do was make par on the 18th to break 80 but I caught my approach shot heavy and sadly watched it splash in the water. It was a heart-breaking moment.
