Sid Brews

Sydney Francis "Sid" Brews (29 May 1899 – 1972) was a South African professional golfer.
Brews was born in Blackheath, London, England. He turned pro in 1914. He won the South African Open title a total of eight times between 1925 and 1952, when he became the tournament's oldest-ever champion aged 53. He also won the South African PGA Championship six times. His brother Jock Brews won the South African Open four times.
He enjoyed considerable success outside of South Africa. In 1934, probably his finest year, he finished second in the British Open to Henry Cotton, and won both the French Open and Dutch Open championships. He would retain both of those titles in 1935.
