Aussies On Tour: August 19
There was a series of coupling performances in the US and abroad by our touring Aussie pros.
Adam Scott and Marc Leishman have finished the 20 best finishes on Medinah and are now looking forward to the last event of the PGA Tour of the 2019 season this week.
Meanwhile, Curtis Luck Cam Percy and Jamie Arnold departed to start flying in the first week of the final of the Korn Ferry Tour while hunting PGA Tour cards for 2020.
But #AussieOfTheWeek goes to proud Queenslander Andrew Dodt after the 33-year-old broke a four-year winning drought with a clutch victory on the Asian Tour.
The two-time European Tour winner greeted with birdie at the first play-off hole at the new Sarawak Championship in Malaysia in its first start back in a pro event after a five-month break due to a back injury.
So for producing an incredible performance on his return to the world stage, we are proud to anoint Dodt as our newest #AussieOfTheWeek!
