Aussies On Tour: Aug 12

<image="1" align="left" />

Two of Australia's finest were brilliant on the weekend with Minjee Lee and Adam Scott locking down top 10s on the US's two biggest tours.

Minjee recorded a second straight LPGA top 15 after finishing in a share of 6th at the Ladies Scottish Open, while Adam cracked the top five after a final round 65 at the opening FedEx Cup Playoffs event in New York.

But #AussieOfTheWeek goes to a rising star who we all hope will reach those heights one day with 19-year-old Gabi Ruffels making Australian golf history in Mississippi.

Ruffels became the first Australian to win the US Women's Amateur and she did it in unbelievable fashion, birdieing four of the last five holes to earn a 1 Up win in the 36-hole final against Albane Valenzuela.

The Melburnian stiffed her approach on 17 on her way to birdie to go ahead in the match, before draining a downhill six-metre putt on the final green for the biggest win of her life.

So it's exemptions into next year's US Women's Open, ANA Inspiration, Women's British Open, Evian Championship, Augusta National Women's Amateur and a first #AussieOfTheWeek crown for Gabi Ruffels!
