Aussies Abroad: 10 August - PGA of Australia

Aussies Abroad: 10 August


Western Australians Min Woo Lee and Jason Scrivener burst out of the blocks in England but it was the 2020 ISPS Handa Vic Open champ who ground out a sensational T6 result this week.

His big sister, Minjee Lee, backed up last week’s outright third result on the LPGA Tour with an outright fourth in Ohio as the women’s major season looms.

But major championship golf is officially back – and so is our newest #AussieOfTheWeek Jason Day.

The Queenslander notched his fourth straight top 10 result against the world’s best, while also securing a sixth career top 10 in the PGA Championship in just 11 starts.

So to hitting form at the right time, we congratulate Jason on another #AussieOfTheWeek gong!
