Aussies On Tour: February 3
by Golf Australia
The Aussie summer of golf rolls on this week with the ISPS Handa Vic Open kick-starting things in Barwon Heads, meaning a host of Australia's top pros had one last chance to fine-tune their games before heading home.
Lucas Herbert backed up his maiden European Tour win with a solid performance in Saudi Arabia,
On the Champions Tour, Rod Pampling and Stephen Leaney notched top 10 finishes but our Aussie of the Week comes from further south in Panama.
Victorian Ryan Ruffels continued his consistent run of form with a T15 result at the Panama Championship but it was New South Welshman Brett Drewitt who locked up #AussieOfTheWeek on the Korn Ferry Tour.
Drewitt finished in a share of seventh on the US secondary circuit, marking his best finish anywhere in the world in nearly two years.
So to Brett on a timely return to form in Panama... congratulations!
