While the press invariably referred to Bobby Verwey as ‘Gary Player's brother-in-law' throughout his long career, Bobby's own hard-won golfing achievements deserve acclaim, as this autobiography, co-written with his partner Nina Naudé, makes clear.The Way It Was is a candid, first-hand look at what it was like to be a professional golfer between the 1950s and the late 1990s. Bobby Verwey was one of the true pioneers of professional golf, and he details the life of the players during those early years, when they would drive across America for an average of six or seven hundred miles a week for about seven months of the year in order to get to the next tournament. Everyone played with a passion and dedication, even though the money was, by modern standards, derisory.Bobby relates the many ups and downs of his life, with most of the highs relating to his family - he is the father of three sons, all committed golfers. He talks about many of the key matches of his career, in particular his victory in the 1991 British Senior Open. Bobby also discusses his controversial and complicated relationship with his famous brother-in-law, which has inevitably had an impact on his personal life and professional career.Golf enthusiasts will enjoy the many amusing stories of the colourful characters Bobby has met and played against through the years and all over the world.With a Foreword by Peter Alliss.
