Dear Golf Club,
We are pleased to announce that Peter Alliss will be appearing at the PAVILION THEATRE, RHYL on Saturday 9th October 7.30pm and a special offer is enclosed for you and your members.
With his father, Percy Alliss, among the finest players of his generation, it was perhaps inevitable that Peter would also make a career in golf. Percy hired Peter as his unpaid assistant at Ferndown Golf Club, allowing him time off during midweek to compete in tournaments. With some degree of success in his first professional tournaments, Peter quickly established himself among the top young players of the time.
Between 1954 and 1969, he won 21 professional tournaments - including three British PGA championships - and was twice winner of the Vardon Trophy. In September 1958, he won the national championships of Italy, Spain, and Portugal in three consecutive weeks.
His first appearance in the Ryder Cup was in 1953, and with the single exception of 1955, he represented Great Britain and Ireland in the event until 1969. He is one of only two father-and-son duos to have represented their country at this level.
Peter made his broadcasting debut way back in 1961, as part of the BBC team covering the Open Championship at Birkdale which was won by Arnold Palmer. His retirement from international golf at the – relatively early – age of 38 led to a full-time career \\\"on the other side of the ropes.\\\" By 1978 he was the BBC\\\'s chief golf commentator following the death of his co-host and great friend Henry Longhurst.
Peter once claimed he\\\'s a golf commentator only because he\\\'s \\\"there as an old player, a lover of the game and a good weaver of stories\\\". Modesty would prevent him saying that Golf Digest described him as \\\"the greatest golf commentator ever\\\" – but to many that\\\'s what he is.
\\\"When it comes to painting a picture with words, he\\\'s nothing short of Rembrandt…\\\"
\\\"Alliss [is] one of the finest strikers of the golf ball in the land…\\\"
