PGA Tour of Australasia

The Australasian PGA Tour will get underway in earnest next week at the WA PGA Championship at Kalgoorlie where we will be following the fortunes of Jack Buchanan who will be exempt into most events by virtue of his 12th place finish at Qualifying School back in April.  The first event was the PNG Open in August in which Jack finished in a tie for 13th on a score of 9 under.  Jack Tanner will also be looking to pre-qualify for various events.  Keep a lookout also for our teaching professional Adam Bland who will be teeing it up in a number of events across the summer.
