Aussies On Tour: January 27
by Golf Australia
We were forced into a world first a fortnight ago when Wade Ormsby and Cam Smith split the #AussieOfTheWeek honours...
And would you believe it, our hands are tied again!
Victorian young gun Lucas Herbert was unbelievable in winning his first European Tour title in Dubai on Sunday night in a playoff, to secure his card for two more years.
And as the sun set on Australia Day on the other side of the world, Marc Leishman gave Aussie golf fans even more to cheer about in California.
Leishman was in career-best form with the putter on his way to a Sunday 65 that was enough for him to lift his fifth PGA Tour trophy.
So two Marc and Lucas, congratulations... and keep 'em coming!
