Weather gods keep on smiling

Fans can expect showers throughout the day here at Twin Creeks Golf and Country Club, but if recent history is any indication it will have little effect on the quality of golf we have witnessed so far.

Today’s forecast is for more of the same, with most players more concerned about the wind conditions that the threat of showers.

Strong winds yesterday afternoon caused some concern as players struggled, especially with the downwind holes on the back nine.

The weather bureau has forecast winds again today, but not of the same strength we witnessed in round two.

The field was reduced overnight with players at -1 included for the weekend rounds, meaning names like WA’s Michael Sim and Michael Long still in the field with a chance of winning the prestigious event.

We have a crammed leaderboard with four players tied at -12 and a plethora of quality golfers all within striking distance.

The original architect of this magnificent golf course in Greater Western Sydney, Graham Marsh, will be joining us this weekend for the final round.

Marsh, who built this course in 2006, will be quietly pleased with the feedback about Twin Creeks.

The greens have been described as some of the best in world golf, and the course has demanded quality ball-striking and strategy in the hunt for birdies.

It should be a fascinating weekend of golf to come. Will the Texan Kramer Hickok lift the trophy on his first visit to Australia, or will Jarryd Felton go one better this year and get his name on the silverware.
