Our Aussies rose to the challenge this week, recording a number of top-10 finishes.
But this week’s standout performance and #AussieOfTheWeek title goes to Whitney Hillier, who not only produced her best result of the LET year, but made a spectacular hole-in-one in Spain – watch it here.
Marc Leishman started the 2020 PGA Tour season in hot fashion, closing with a superb 65 at the Safeway Open. The Victorian faced a nervous wait in the clubhouse at 14-under while Adam Hawin and Cameron Champ battled it out, with Champ eventually coming out on top at 17-under.
Over in Austria, Peter Fowler returned his third top-10 finish of the year while fellow New South Welshman, Brendan Jones, earned outright ninth in Japan.
Shout-out to Jamie Arnold who survived a three-hole sudden death playoff to win the Tahiti International Open on the Aus PGA Pro-Am series.
