Australian Cam Davis knows a green-and-gold Olympic call-up is within reach if he can continue his rich vein of form at the PGA TOUR’s ZOZO Championship in Japan this week.

Amongst an Australian contingent also boasting Adam Scott, Min Woo Lee and Aaron Baddeley, Davis is the highest-ranked Aussie in the field.

Indeed, only Cameron Smith (No.18) and Jason Day (No.23) sit ahead of Davis on the Official World Golf Ranking, thrusting the 28-year-old from Sydney well into the frame to represent Australia at the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

With five top-10s in his past six starts on the PGA TOUR, Davis enters this week at a career-high No.42 in the world and with a clear picture of what is required to add his name to the two-man Australian Olympic golf team.

“I’ve seen some social media stuff pop up with me projected to make the team… I’ve got a lot of good golf to be played between now and then to make that happen,” Davis conceded.

“I’m glad that I’m on a good trajectory for it and if I keep doing what I’m doing, I might be a chance.

“It would be a lot of fun, competing at the Olympics. I love France. I went there for the first time this year on my honeymoon so I’d love to go back there and compete in that.

“There’s a lot of golf to be played until that team is selected and I’d love to put my hand up for it.”

Ever since the US PGA Championship where he recorded a career-best finish in a major of tied for fourth, Davis has been riding a wave of momentum.

He first had to play his way into the penultimate event of the FedEx Cup Playoffs to finish top-50 and secure his place in the limited-field PGA TOUR Signature Events in 2024.

With that accomplished, Davis has embraced the sense of freedom through the FedEx Cup Fall with a third-place finish at the Fortinet Championship and a tie for seventh at last week’s Shriners Children’s Open.

It’s form that he wants to carry through all the way to the Fortinet Australian PGA Championship and the ISPS HANDA Australian Open.

“There are multiple things going through my head about the trip home,” said the 2017 Australian Open champ.

“I would love to keep this form going and I feel like I have a real chance to win those tournaments, they mean a lot to me.

“I’d love to play some really solid golf while I’m there but at the same time I’m looking forward to seeing a lot of faces that I haven’t seen since last year and spending time with family.

“I love playing Australian golf courses as well, I feel it’s a style of golf that I don’t get to play very often.

“I’m trying to make sure that I really enjoy myself while I’m back home. I love the fans and everything about the atmosphere of those tournaments but at the same time I’d love to keep my game sharp and give it a good run.”

The LPGA Tour is also in Asia this week for the BMW Ladies Championship in Korea, where New Zealand’s Lydia Ko is the defending champion.

The top five Aussies on the Rolex Women’s World Golf Ranking are all in the field at Seowon Valley Country Club, led by world No.7 Minjee Lee.
