Sorry to hear this news, a very likeable guy. In 1974 I got a chart from Golf Weekly which I put up in my office. There was an area tp predict the top 3 places..

I put
1. Gary Player
2. Peter Oosterhius
3. Jack Nicklaus

That's how it finish, pity I wasn't a betting man.

RIP Peter, a gentleman of the game.

I used to watch BFTB when I was a kid, I had no idea what it was about, just remember Yosser & “Giz a job, I can do that.”

Only just realised now that King Theoden & Yosser are one & the same.

RIP!
