Career

Rensburg challenged John Pulman for the World Championship title in early 1966. Pulman had played a series of matches against Rex Williams in South Africa in late 1965. Rensburg lost by 12 frames to 39.[2]

Van Rensburg also held the South African Professional Championship from 1950, taking the title from Peter Mans, and defending it on a challenge basis until 1965 when he lost it to Perrie Mans, son of Peter.[3].[2]

gollark: And this *could easily be* and is *already a breach of privacy*.
gollark: Yes, that is also bad.
