It's fire season. And this weekend the most devastating fire tore through our property in the Bainskloof area. After the devastation we will have front row seats to the rejuvenation of this incredible part of the Cape Floral Kingdom. drakenskloof.com/post/wild-fire…

I watched @chris_eubanks96 win @MallorcaChamps 2 weeks ago. Today he goes through to quarters at @Wimbledon. He ranked 150+ a year ago; now he’s 31. All of this 5 years after turning pro. Despite a late start, I think he could be a GOAT.
