It was another great week for our touring professionals around the globe this week, with Sydney's Matt Jones returning to form with a T5 finish on the US PGA Tour and Matt Griffin continuing his strong run of form in Japan.
But the #AussieOfTheWeek honour goes to Queensland's Karis Davidson.
The young gun put in another sensational effort on the Japan Ladies Tour with a T6 finish and she did it in style, Davidson recording a tap-in eagle on the 72nd hole to surge up the leaderboard.
