Five Aussies to Challenge in Norway


A strong Australian contingent will again line up on the European Tour’s secondary circuit when the Norwegian Challenge tees off this week.

A strong Australian contingent will again line up on the European Tour’s secondary circuit when the Norwegian Challenge tees off this week.

Kieran Pratt, who finished top Australian in Azerbajain last week, is once again in the field and will be joined by Scott Arnold, Terry Pilkadaris, Nathan Holman and Jack Wilson.

Wilson was the only one of the Australians to miss the cut last week and needs to turn things around after back to back poor performances.

The 23-year-old faded at the European Tour’s Russian Open two weeks ago after a good start and will be looking for a better performance this week.

Terry Pilkadaris, who is 22nd on the money list with the top-15 to earn European Tour cards at the end of the season, comes off a decent week in Azerbajain but struggled last year at his only appearance at this event with a
missed cut.

Challenge Tour regular Scott Arnold has not been at his best this year and presently lies 77th on the money list but comes to Norway with good memories to draw on.

The Sydneysider had his second best finish of the year at this event last year when finishing T7 and needs something similar this week to turn his year around.

Also playing for the second week in a row is Nathan Holman who finished a credible T35 in his first Challenge Tour appearance last week.
