Aussies on Tour: Smylie straight to work in South Africa


Queenslander Elvis Smylie has wasted no time in putting his recently acquired status on the DP World Tour to good use, teeing it up in this week’s $US6 million Nedbank Golf Challenge in South Africa.

Exempt on the DP World Tour for the 2025 and 2026 seasons courtesy of his stirring victory at the BMW Australian PGA Championship a fortnight ago, Smylie flew straight from the ISPS HANDA Australian Open to Sun City to take on the likes of defending champion Max Homa, Presidents Cup representatives Corey Conners, Mackenzie Hughes and Christiaan Bezuidenhout and DP World Tour stars Danny Willett and Nicolai Hojgaard.

Australian Open champion Ryggs Johnston is also in the field as he and Smylie seek to further entrench their positions on the Race to Dubai rankings.

With his victory at Royal Queensland and tie for fifth at Kingston Heath, Smylie sits atop the rankings after just two events.

The 22-year-old had no status just three weeks ago yet is now leading the Order of Merit with the global tour card he has been chasing since turning professional more than three years ago.

It’s a quick turnaround for a host of Aussies who played the Australian Open and are now in Saudi Arabia for the PIF Saudi International.

With Round 1 teeing off on Wednesday preparation time was limited for the Ripper GC trio of Cameron Smith, Marc Leishman and Lucas Herbert, Brett Coletta, Jak Carter and Daniel Gale.

Travis Smyth was out early in Round 1 and was the best-placed Aussie in a share of seventh at 3-under through nine holes.

Two Aussies have also started well at Final Stage of the PGA TOUR Champions Qualifying Tournament in Arizona.

Brendan Jones and Scott Barr are both in a share of fifth after Round 1, Mathew Goggin and Andre Stolz two shots further back in a tie for 22nd with three rounds left to play.

Warrnambool have maintained a slight edge after Kooindah Waters missed a golden opportunity to take the outright lead on day two of The Scramble Championship Final at Sanctuary Cove.

Leading by 1.1 shots overnight, the Warrnambool Golf Club team of Luke and Matthew Wines, Ross Corbett, Tom Batten and Eynesbury Professional Ben Ford had a nett score of 17.3-under par on Wednesday for a two-round total of 37.6-under par.

Their lead is just 0.2 of a shot from the Kooindah Waters team of Jordan Deeble, Lee Moore, Dean Smith, Mitchell McDonald and Toukley Golf Club Professional Mitchell Brown, who could only manage a par on their final hole at the par-5 10th in Round 2.

Less than five shots separates all 10 teams who made the two-round cut, setting the stage for an enthralling third and final round at Sanctuary Cove’s The Palms Course on Thursday.

As their playing days for the North Warrnambool Eagles draw to a close, the Warrnambool boys have turned to golf. They are now the envy of their mates as they close in on Championship Final victory at their first attempt.

“We’ve had a few mates who have actually come up here a few years back,” said Matthew Wines.

“The three of us are only 12 months into playing golf. We only started around December last year so this is our first real golf trip.”

Although more confident off the tee in their second look at The Palms Course, Warrnambool were somewhat slow out of the blocks.

They were 4-under through seven holes courtesy of a nett albatross at the par-5 14th but picked up 6.3 shots in their final five holes to post a number, closing out with a nett eagle on the par-5 10th.

“We had to take Tommy’s drive and he smacked it down there to about 205 to the flag,” said Ford.

“We had to take it no matter what and then our highest handicapper pulls out a hybrid from nowhere, hits it to about 25 feet and then sinks the putt.

“We went nuts. We needed that one.”

Kooindah Waters needed a birdie on their final hole – the par-5 10th – to snatch the lead but had to settle for a par despite being 190 metres out hitting their second.

It was a disappointing finish for a team that was 12.2-under par through nine holes.

“It would’ve been nice to close it out with a birdie,” admitted PGA Professional Mitchell Brown.

“Yesterday we holed a lot of long putts – we holed three bombs yesterday – but today we were just in that mid-range and didn’t really make any of those.”

Lithgow Golf Club played their way into the final round with the low round of the day on Wednesday.

The team of Brandan Horner, Glenn Piggott, Harrison Bender, Nathan Mitchell and PGA Professional Gavin MacPherson combined for a nett score of 20.6-under par to climb into seventh position, less than four shots off the lead.

The final round begins at 8am AEST on Thursday with Tour players Michael Sim and Cassie Porter to join the teams as they strive for Scramble Championship glory.


David Bransdon hopes that success on home soil will translate into a maiden PGA TOUR Champions title in 2025 after taking out the Noosa Atlas Golf Services Legends Pro-Am at Noosa Golf Course.

Joint winner with Adam Henwood at the Gold Coast Senior PGA in his last start, Bransdon this time edged Henwood by a shot, his round of 7-under 65 made up of seven birdies, an eagle and two bogeys.

With two bogeys and an eagle in his opening four holes it was a somewhat mixed start for Bransdon before a hot putter enabled him to come home strong.

“It’s literally just the putter at the moment. I’m putting nicely,” said Bransdon.

“I’ve been hitting it good for a few months and I wasn’t far from a win in the States at the end of the season.

“If I can continue with the upward trend of my short game – which was a little tardy at times this year – I might be in for a ‘W’ next year on the big boys tour.”

Henwood (66) continued his excellent form with a share of second alongside Chris Taylor with Richard Gilkey (67) and Brad Burns (68) rounding out the top five.

HOW THE WINNING ROUND UNFOLDED

After his mixed start, Bransdon soon settled into his work and went about building a winning score.

He made birdies at 16 and 18 to get into red figures and then played the Noosa front nine in 5-under 31 with birdies at one, two, six, seven and eight.

He made par at each of his final three holes, just enough to hold on for a one-stroke win.

WHAT THE WINNER SAID

“It was a weird day,” said Bransdon.

“Got off to a cold start with the putter and then it turned into a really hot day with the putter.

“The golf course was a lot greener and nicer than last year, and it was a pleasure to play. The greens were rolling beautifully.”

The PGA Legends Tour is at Beerwah Golf Club Wednesday and Thursday for the Elgin Valley Beerwah Legends Pro-Am and then returns to Sanctuary Cove Golf and Country Club next Tuesday for the Sanctuary Cove G&CC Legends Pro-Am hosted by Peter Senior and Adam Scott.


First year PGA Associate Lachlan Chamberlain upstaged a host of Tour winners to claim a maiden adidas PGA Pro-Am Series victory at the Eastwood Golf Club Pro-Am in Melbourne.

Players the calibre of Lachlan Barker, Austin Bautista and Ashley Hall teed it up at Eastwood but Gold Creek Country Club Associate Lachlan Chamberlain blitzed the field with a superb round of 5-under 67.

It was four strokes clear of Barker, Ruben Lal and Lachlan Aylen while eight players shared fifth place at even par.

Chamberlain walked the course with good friend Matt Millar 12 months ago and said the prolific adidas PGA Pro-Am Series winner has been pivotal in his development as a player.

“He is a big help,” said Chamberlain. “Just being able to play with him a little bit back home and chat to him about what he kind of does and how he goes about things.”

HOW THE WINNING ROUND UNFOLDED

Second group off the first tee on Tuesday morning, Chamberlain started out with two pars and then made back-to-back birdies at three and four.

He dropped a shot at the long par-3 eighth but got that one back and then some with a birdie on 10 followed by eagle at the par-5 12th.

A second bogey at the par-5 13th was a slight setback but he rebounded with birdies at 16 and 18 to set a mark that the afternoon groups would never threaten.

WHAT THE WINNER SAID

“This is the second time I’ve been here,” said Chamberlain.

“The first time I was here I just went for a walk around watching last year.

“So the first time I’ve played here and really enjoyed the course. It’s in very good condition considering the few bits of rain they’ve got here and there and played well today.

“Managed to hit the ball where I needed to and made a couple of good putts.”

The adidas PGA Pro-Am Series has a short break now before resuming on Thursday, December 12 with the AB Comsure Invitational at Ryde-Parramatta Golf Club.


Three members of the North Warrnambool Eagles are hoping to erase the painful memories of a grand final defeat with victory at this week’s Scramble Championship Final at Sanctuary Cove Golf and Country Club.

The Warrnambool Golf Club team of Luke and Matthew Wines, Tom Batten, Ross Corbett and PGA Professional Ben Ford had a day out in Round 1 on Tuesday to lead by 1.1 shots.

Eynesbury-based Professional Ford picked up where he left off at the Regional Qualifying while Luke Wines proved deadly in his role as lead man on the greens, pouring in almost everything he looked at from inside 10 feet.

The Warrnambool team had six nett eagles in their round of 20.3-under par, putting them a little more than a stroke ahead of Kooindah Waters Golf Club (19.2-under) with Willunga Golf Club (18.2-under) a further shot back in third.

Just half a shot separates Ulverstone Golf Club (17.5-under), Moranbah Golf Club (17.1-under) and Bunbury Golf Club (17) but it is Warrnambool who leads the way.

Adamant they are here purely for the experience of playing in a Scramble Championship Final on the Gold Coast, there is motivation to win sitting just beneath the surface.

“We lost the grand final by a point. We don’t want to talk about that,” said Batten of their heartbreaking defeat to arch rivals South Warrnambool in September.

“It’s golf season at the moment.

“We’re enjoying the experience, to be honest, but I think everyone would be joking if they didn’t say they wanted to come up here and win.”

There is an AFL connection in the Kooindah Waters team also, Wyong Lakes teammates Jordan Deeble, Lee Moore, Dean Smith and Mitch McDonald proving to be a formidable combination on the golf course, too.

They recruited Toukley Golf Club Professional Mitchell Brown prior to their Regional Qualifier win at Pacific Dunes and now find themselves in the hunt for a national title.

Crediting Lee ‘Pixie’ Moore for some long bombs in their six eagles and seven birdies on day one, Mitch McDonald also expects the competitive juices to amp up over the final two rounds.

“We saw it as having won already, just getting up here and being so looked after, playing and staying here,” he said.

“It just already feels like a win so we didn’t feel that much pressure.

“A lot of us have played sport most of our lives so we’re going to get on the tee and want to win anyway.”

The Willunga team led by PGA Professional Cameron Bickley had four eagles and 11 birdies to sit in third place while Ulverstone played the front nine in 11-under on their way to a 17.5-under par total.

Moranbah Golf Club’s Kyle Cherry had the honour of hitting the opening tee shot of the tournament on Tuesday only to have nerves take hold and miss the ball entirely.

Despite the ignominy of that moment, Cherry more than made it for up when it mattered, hitting the approach shot and draining the putt for a nett eagle on Moranbah’s final hole as they climbed into fifth position.

Round 1 scores


For Jasper Stubbs, this weeks Vic PGA Championship at Moonah Links feels like home.

Although he was brought up in Gippsland and later moved to Melbourne, Stubbs and his family often holiday on the Mornington Peninsula.

“I’ve played junior tournaments there (at Moonah) and played there quite a bit,” he said.

“I like it. It’s windy and I like the wind so I’m excited to be there.”

Moonah’s two courses at Fingal – the brutish Open course originally designed by Peter Thomson to host the national championship, and Ross Perrett’s more friendly but broadly popular Legends course – will host the latest instalment of the Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia from Thursday.

With his outstanding tied-third finish in the ISPS HANDA Australian Open at Kingston Heath on Sunday, the 23-year-old rookie pro Stubbs now knows that his playing rights for next season at home are secure.

It gives him security to pursue his dreams with freedom; the top three on the Order of Merit pick up DP World Tour cards for next season, and he is currently 10th. Beyond Moonah Links, he plans on a crack at the Asian Tour Q-School in a couple of weeks, where the top 35 will receive cards for 2025.

Stubbs had only American Ryggs Johnston and Curtis Luck ahead of him at Kingston Heath. Given that he only turned pro for the WA PGA Championship in October, his improvement has been impressive.

“This was my second Aussie Open and my sixth start as a pro, so very happy,” he said. “It might take a while for it to sink in but I’m happy with how I handled the whole week and how I played. Top-three in my national Open is awesome. It sucks not to be a little closer to Ryggs, but it was a great week for me.”

Stubbs was right in contention for the win until he bogeyed the brilliant par-3 15th hole from behind the green. “It wasn’t a terrible golf shot,” he said. “Just pulled it a little and went into a bad spot. That’s what we’ve got in the sandbelt. You can be very close but end up dead.”

Stubbs was also frustratingly close to grabbing one of the three spots in next year’s Open Championship at Royal Portrush. Ultimately the third spot went to Marc Leishman who tied with him. So in effect, had Stubbs’ chip from beside the 18th green on Sunday gone in, he would have been going to Royal Portrush. Because they were tied-third, Leishman was awarded the spot because his world ranking is higher.

“I knew that was going to be the case,” said Stubbs. “I knew that I was tied with him on the last hole and I said to my caddie ‘just got to make one more birdie’. I gave it my best shot but didn’t quite get there. I’m a bit gutted not to get a ticket back to the Open but stoked with the week.”

This week’s field for the Vic PGA is headed by defending champion David Micheluzzi with a $250,000 prize fund.

The Victorian Celebrity Amateur Challenge, a best-ball nett stroke event where pros partner with an amateur, is another highlight with the likes of Brendan Fevola, Dermott Brereton and Ryan Papenhuyzen taking part.

Robert Mitchell has broken through for his maiden win on the PGA Legends Tour in what is possibly his final year on the senior circuit.

Mitchell had four birdies and an eagle in his round of 6-under 66 to share victory with the in-form Adam Henwood at the NewGen Caravans Tin Can Bay Legends Pro-Am at Tin Can Bay Country Club.

Hailing from Western Australia, Mitchell has been a member of the PGA Legends Tour for the past three seasons but said that 2024 could well be his last.

“This is my third year out here and I probably won’t be coming back next year, unfortunately,” said Mitchell.

“Got to get myself a full-time job, buy a house and all that sort of stuff.

“The missus has been awesome for letting me play three years so thank her a lot for that.”

Mitchell and Henwood finished two strokes clear of a group of four players at 4-under, Brad Burns, Peter Brown, Guy Wall and Mark Boulton all posting 68s.

HOW THE WINNING ROUNDS UNFOLDED

Starting from the 15th hole it took only until Mitchell’s second hole to get under-par with a birdie at the par-4 16th.

He would stay in red figures for the entirety of his round, adding birdies at the fourth, eighth and 13th holes along with an eagle at the par-5 10th.

Henwood, too, was quick out of the blocks with birdie at the par-4 first only to give it back with a bogey at the very next hole.

He turned 2-under courtesy of birdies at five and eight, added two more immediately after the turn and then closed with birdies at 14 and 18 to match Mitchell’s 6-under total.

WHAT THE WINNER SAID

“I played nicely, hit a lot of good shots, made some good putts,” said Mitchell.

“It was just solid all day. It felt good, which was nice.

“I knew I was sort of heading towards my first win and I just sort of hanging in there I suppose.

“My fellow legends players have been awesome for the last three years, so I’ll always thank them for that.

“You get a lot of guys that make a speech and they say it’s like a family here and it is like a family.”

The countdown to the season finale continues at Noosa Golf Course on Tuesday and then moves to Beerwah on Wednesday for the two-day Elgin Valley Beerwah Legends Pro-Am.


WPGA CEO Karen Lunn has won a major international award for her contribution to golf’s engagement with women and girls.

Lunn was named ‘International Woman of the Year’ at the annual awards presented by Women In Golf UK.

Lunn, who is still in the dark as to how she was nominated, is nevertheless proud.

“I’m really humbled and honoured because there are so many women around the world doing amazing things in golf,” she said. “To be even considered as a part of that group is an honour.”

Lunn is a former touring professional who played in Europe (1985-2013), on the LPGA Tour (1994-2002) and in Asia (1998-2005), serving on the LET board of directors for 14 years including a 10-year stint as chair as well as chair of the players’ council. A 10-time winner in Europe, the high point was her 1993 British Women’s Open victory.

In 2022, she became the first woman elected as Chair of the Australian Golf Industry Council, the collaboration of the main stakeholders in the sport.

She has witnessed much change in that period of almost 40 years.

“We’ve made great inroads the past few years,” she said. “We’ve gone from being really frustrated and at times it’s been a tough gig, to being really excited about the direction now. We’re in a much better place.

“What we’ve achieved working so closely with the PGA and Golf Australia since we put the five-year strategy in place, it’s really exciting. It’s a great time for women’s sport to evolve and to be recognised as a separate centrepiece to our male counterparts.

“We don’t want to be the poor man’s option, and not just a token organisation. There was a lot of that in the beginning: ‘Oh, we better have a woman’. Now there’s genuine commercial support from business and I think the Australian public is opening up. The Matildas were almost a revolution and the Women’s World Cup cricket, which I was fortunate enough to see live. There have been great moments.”


PGA Associate Katie Buckley hopes to see golf clubs across Australia express their creative side after launching a recycling initiative with a difference at Townsville Golf Club.

In the first year of the PGA’s Membership Pathway Program, Buckley transferred from the New South Wales South Coast to North Queensland earlier this year, a phone call from none other than seven-time major winner Karrie Webb convincing to pack the car – and her cat Denzel – and head north.

Shortly after arriving, Buckley was made aware of broken tees from the golf course being washed into adjoining waterways and, ultimately, out onto the Great Barrier Reef.

Sensing an opportunity to make a positive contribution to the club’s environmental impact while also feeding her creative side, Buckley instigated a ‘teecycling’ program that will result in an artwork that will be displayed in the clubhouse.

“We asked everyone to pick up five tees when they went out and played and to put them in a vase that we have on the counter at the pro shop,” says Buckley.

“The members got really engaged with it and the vase filled up really fast. Then the juniors got really excited and made it a little game within themselves.

“I’d be out playing and they would run over from other fairways with bundles of tees that they had collected.”

But it is not just the members at Townsville Golf Club who are excited by Buckley’s ‘teecycling’ program.

Rosemary Veitch is not only a member and Women’s Golf Group Coordinator at Townsville Golf Club but also a Townsville Northern Suburbs Lions Club member.

She presented the idea to a meeting of Lions Clubs in North Queensland, word spreading as far as south-east Queensland as ‘teecycling’ took on a life of its own.

“Rosemary’s very passionate about recycling and the environment so she was really excited when I wanted to do it,” Buckley adds.

“As well as the wooden tees, there are lots of little plastic tees that get broken which go into the waterways which is washing into our ecosystems with the animals and then feeds out into the reef water.

“As Rosemary said, it’s a little thing that everyone can do and it’s so easy to do, but actually if you compile it, it makes such a big difference.

“It was such a little idea. We’ll pick up the tees because they’re a problem and I’ll make an art project. And then within a couple of months, it’s literally spreading across Queensland and got so much interest, which is really cool.”

It also reaffirmed to Webb why she was so eager to have someone such as Buckley complete her PGA training at Townsville Golf Club.

“You can see how enthusiastic and full of energy she is,” Webb says.

“I think she’s someone that brings people together and all golf clubs need people like her.

“I look forward to seeing what Katie’s organised when I’m home next.”

With the vase on the pro shop constantly filling up, Buckley hopes to unveil her artwork to the Townsville members in March next year.

She is keeping tight-lipped on what can possibly be created with thousands of broken tees but would love to see other creative types express their visions at golf clubs across Australia.

“I went and played an Associates match at Tropics Golf Club recently and they had my poster up and a vase on the counter with tees in it,” she adds.

“I didn’t even know they were doing that, so it was cool to walk into another golf club and see it happening.

“Hopefully we see some cool art projects popping up in random golf courses all over Australia and perhaps I could judge them.

“I would love that. That would be right up my alley.”


Two PGA Professionals have played on the Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia this season while one team boasts a two-time international winner in 2024 as teams descend on Sanctuary Cove for the 2024 Scramble Championship Final.

Nineteen teams have qualified for an unforgettable week of golf on the Gold Coast with three rounds on The Palms Course at Sanctuary Cove, accommodation at the InterContinental Sanctuary Cove Resort and nightly functions.

It is the most coveted week for club golfers across the country, one team to return home as national champions.

It has already been a summer of celebrations for Willunga Golf Club in South Australia’s McLaren Vale region.

Host to the Webex Players Series South Australia tournament, Willunga has been in the grip of ‘Spud fever’ with the success of Steve Alderson on the G4D Tour in Europe.

Alderson’s story captured the hearts of golf fans across the globe after he became the first person with autism to win a G4D event.

His winning run continued upon his return home when he took out the Webex All Abilities Players Series event at Willunga and then jetted off to Dubai where he won the nett division of the G4D Tour Series Finale.

Fresh off playing the Australian All Abilities Championship at Kingston Heath, Alderson is joined in the Willunga team by Robert and Sarah Perrau, Di Meyer and PGA Professional Cameron Bickley, who took on the tour pros at Willunga in October.

Another tour pr who has rubbed shoulders with some of the best players in the game is Kiama Golf Club’s Wil Daibarra.

Currently completing the PGA’s Membership Pathway Program, Daibarra won the PGA Associate National Final at Cobram Barooga Golf Club, a win that earned him a start at the BMW Australian PGA Championship.

Round 1 of the Championship Final begins on Tuesday. You can follow scoring each day here.
