PGA Tour School 2008
The demanding test of Tour School has started, and there are quite a few Australians hoping to make it to the main tour next year. The school is run over three qualifying stages (well four if you count the pre-qualification) from the 21st October to the 8th December.
Dreams and hopes.

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!
You can have a look at the web site, or even the course.
Live scoring is over at the PGATour.com.

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 […]
Leaney And Coles Withdraw From The Barclays
Citing a wrist injury, Stephen Leaney withdrew after his first round at The Barclays Championship.
Leaney had a 5 over 76 in his first round. Since he was 68th in the FedEx Cup points going into the tournament, he will still be eligible to play in next weeks Deutsche Bank Championship.
Gavin Coles had managed to […]
Australians At The Barclays
So this is it. The first tournament in the much vaunted FedEx Cup, where having the most points at the end of the 4 tournaments will basically give you a US$10 million Super scheme.
There are 16 Australians in The Barclays being played at Westchester Country Club in New York.

Stephen Leaney Is Off To The 2007 PGA Championship
Leaney was the fourth alternative, but managed to score an invite after the man ahead of him (Jason Bohn) withdrew, and the first two alternatives gained spots due to other results on the weekend.
John Daly made history in 1991 by winning the tournament after being the ninth alternative, and you have to wonder if Leaney […]
