Leish is “The Man”
Marc Leishman overcame a bumbling Kurt Barnes to take out the 2008 nab Victorian PGA Championship, his fourth Von Nida Tour title.
Barnes led by two shots with three holes left to play but bogeyed all three to hand the title to Leishman.
Leishman now heads to Sydney for British Open pre-qualifying at The Lakes Golf Club.

18th to 21st October 2007

City Pacific-Mirvac Queensland Open - Gainsborough Greens Golf Club, Pimpama, QLD
2007 FedEx Cup - The Final Standings
A bit of a disappointment really that 16 Australians made the 140 man playoff, and only four came through to the final.
Badds was about the best, moving up from 18 to six, and I got the impression he was the only one trying to do anything out there.

2007 Deutsche Bank Championship
Okay, we will ignore the fact this is the only tournament to start on a Friday, and that it confused the hell out of me for a while when I was setting up my Fantasy Golf team!

Australians Left In The FedEx Cup
Okay, so we know Gavin Coles didn’t make it to the next tournament.
Also missing out by just one spot (a miserly 25 points) is Steve Allan. Not making the cut will do that to you!
Mathew Goggin was two spots and 500 points out of contention. He missed the cut too.
Andrew Buckle made the […]

Gavin Coles had managed to […]
