Millar’s flawless round of 6-under 66 was bogey free and featured a neat 3-under 33 across both nines, further cementing his status as one of the most consistent players in Australian golf.
“The course is the best I’ve seen it for a while and it was nice to finish with such a neat card,” said Millar.
“I enjoy playing here and the course seems to suit my game. I have a good record here and it’s nice to play well again.”
