David Watts, from Durban in South Africa, was born with a condition called Fibular hemimelia where the calf bone in his left leg failed to develop. Three times by the age of 16, complex surgeries to lengthen his leg by a total of 23cm would each need a year or so of painful treatment and rehabilitation, sidelining him from school lessons and playing sport with his friends.
Unable to play football or rugby, as a 10-year-old David became a golfer, and a very good one. “Over the years, you put a lot into it. Sometimes it's hard, but it always gives back, if you stick with it. It's a huge part of my life, has been for a long time, and I'm sure it will be for the rest of my life.”
Twenty-five years after starting, in February David won the G4D Tour @ Singapore Classic in fine style. Enjoy his story today.
