Golf

Ryan will also be playing in the British Amateur championship in June, to be held in Liverpool.

In the spotlight

Ryan also started a show with 2 co-commentators called “Ask The Commentators”. This show is shown regularly on the All Africa Poker channel, which is the only 24/7 poker channel in Africa. The show is aimed at educating the rapidly growing South African poker market. There has been a superb response to this show with a flurry of mails and questions being regularly received.

Ryan is often invited as a guest on a popular TV Show called betting World, hosted by one of South Africa’s premier celebrities named Neil Andrews. In this TV show, Ryan is normally asked about poker and sometimes golf and to make his contributions on those fields.
