Rugby: SA Rugby says Cornal Hendricks will be remembered for his dedication to the sport

# Rugby: SA Rugby’s president, Mark Alexander, has paid tribute to Cornal Hendricks, describing him as a remarkable athlete whose contribution to the sport will always be remembered. The 37-year-old former Springbok winger passed away last night, reportedly from a heart attack. He played 12 Tests for the Boks and represented Boland, the Cheetahs, and the Bulls. Alexander says Hendricks was one of those players who loved the game and worked extremely hard, but always did so with a smile on his face, treating all people with respect.
