The first time I met Ramayah was when he won the PGA Cship in RSGC.
I followed him for a few holes and was amazed at his talent. It was mind blowing.
I also noticed that he was using a borrowed set and shoes that were too big for him.
My company managed to secure a contract for him with Mizuno .
He was the first asian outside to be with Mizuno.
And he was invited to play in the Mizuno Open.We became very close friends and I had the privilege of playing with him on countless occasions.
He was probably the most talented golfer in Malaysia.
He was self taught and he was just born to play and excell in golf
Ramayah did not have a “mechanical” golf swing like modern golfers.
It was all natural. Words can hardly describe his swing movement.
It was pure poetry in motion and a great delight to watch.
He also went on to win the prestigious Marcos Invitational against a very strong field.
Ramayah was a wonderful human being.
