Gary Player Booking Agency Profile
The player's accomplishments go far beyond his appearances on tours. He became the PGA Tour's top money earner in 1961, and with his triumph in the 1965 U.S. Open, he became just the third golfer in history to win the Masters, U.S., British, and PGA Championships. Awarded for his achievements to the game, Player was elected into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1974 and got the renowned Bobby Jones Award in 1966. He also demonstrated his outstanding abilities by winning three PGA Tour events in a row in 1978.
In addition to his golfing accomplishments, Player has received many awards and medals. These include being named an Honorary Member of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews in 1994 and receiving an Honorary Doctor of Law degree from St. Andrews University in 1995, as well as receiving the South African Decoration for Meritorious Service in 1982 and the South African Sportsman of the Century Award in 1990. The Hilton Hotel Lifetime Achievement Award was also given to Player in 1995.
Although golf takes up a large chunk of Player's life, he also pursues other interests in his spare time. In addition to farming and keeping his physical health, he raises racehorses. Notably, Player's golf course design firm has a green stance, emphasizing minimal site disturbance, organic uses, and the use of eco-friendly building materials in their golf course designs. This dedication to sustainability is consistent with Player's larger idea of good stewardship..

An example fee to book Gary Player is in the starting range of $75,000-$149,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
