25.01.2022 After nearly 4 months of not swinging a club because of my wrist, I'm glad to say that today I played my first competitive round since my surgery. Had a 36 hole assessment round for a possible start to a 3 year traineeship. This morning at Victoria Park in Brisbane I had 64 (-1) and a solid round of 57 (-8) in the afternoon for a very pleasing -9 total. Not bad for the first real day back out there. Can't even explain how happy I am to be back playing and can't wait to do it all again. Thanks
25.01.2022 Yesterday I notched up win number 2 out of 2 starts. Shooting 4 under par for a 3 shot win in the Toowoomba Trainee Match, at Toowoomba Middle Ridge Golf Club. Thanks to Josh Stewart and Hayden Gomez for a well run day. Course was amazing as always.
24.01.2022 The first 2 rounds of the NSW Open this week, I hit it really well in round 1 for a round of 73, after watching every putt run over the edge of the hole and just wouldn't drop. A much better round today but started and finished poorly but on the bright side I did string together 6 easy birdies through the middle of my round. I'm sitting at -1 outside the cut line at the moment. But won't know the result until after lunch tomorrow as weather delays today and yesterday have pushed the field back a bit.
24.01.2022 Been working pretty hard on the parts of my game that need some fine tuning and I fly out to Fiji tomorrow for the Fiji International. The long run of events leading up to Christmas begins now. Time to step up!
23.01.2022 Just finished the Port Curtis Classic here in Gladstone. Was an enjoyable 3 days and after 3 solid rounds of -1 at Gladstone, -3 at Boyne Island, and -3 at Calliope I finished in a tie for 8th at 7 under par. Always improving. Thanks to my sponsors DG Group, Simple ID, and Whitecross. Couldn't do it without everyones help and support. #livingthedream
22.01.2022 Been a long time between posts but I want to get this page going again. Here is a little clip from about 18 months ago when my ball striking was the best its ever been. Couldn't miss the middle of the clubface if I tried. Always good to have a goal to work back towards and this is where I want to see my swing again. My game is only getting better again and wrist seems to be holding up ok so far. Happy golfing everyone.
20.01.2022 Hey everyone. I'm now 3 weeks into my nearly 5 week trip in north Queensland. Have had a very mixed bag of results the game is definitely there but I just need to put it all together over 4 days instead of 1 or 2. Slowly building my game to a point where I am happy with it leading into the more major events later in the year. Thanks for everyones support and I've been close before and it's only a matter of time before everything clicks and the results really start flowing
20.01.2022 What a start to the year! Started a new job, 5 events played, 2 wins and 2 top 5's. Arundel Hills - Tied 2nd (1 over) Coolangatta/Tweed - Tied 4th (even par) Caboolture - 8th (3 over par)... Mt Warren - 1st (3 under par) Victoria Park 36 holes - 1st (13 under par) The short game work I've done in the last few weeks seems to be helping the scores. Thankful for every opportunity I have to play and compete in the game I love most. The future is only as bright as you make it. Thank you to everyone who makes it possible and everyone who shows an interest in what I do.
19.01.2022 Here we are again
19.01.2022 After a sneaky little 5 under par this morning at qualifying I have played my way into the Victorian PGA at Huntingdale Golf Club starting tomorrow. Bring on 2016. Feeling great about the game right now. #livingthedream
18.01.2022 Last week at the WA Open I hit it pretty solid for 3 days out of 4 but just couldn't manage to get the ball in the hole but still finished in a tie for 34th which is a good sign of my ball striking for the week.
17.01.2022 Had a lot fun playing some great pro ams in Brisbane this week. Finished T10th at Virginia, T6th at Indooroopilly but unfortunately had a shocking day with the putter at Victoria Park to finish T52nd. A lot of work left to do but still moving forward. Off to Noumea on the 28th of September. Looking forward to it. Thanks everyone
17.01.2022 This week at the Fiji International I finished in a tie for 38th to make my first cut in a big Australian tour event. In some of the most ridiculous and difficult playing conditions I have ever seen the first 2 days, the cut for the event was +14 and the leader was at +2. Happy to finish where I did but I know that my game is getting better and better every week and am only expecting better results to come! Thank you everyone for your support. I will see you all very soon
17.01.2022 In Kalgoorlie last week I manage to make my second cut in a row but a costly 77 in round 3 pushed me way down the leaderboard and event had me finish in a tie for 39th. Consistency is the key and will be looking for a much better week here at Royal Fremantle for the WA Open.
16.01.2022 Just finished my 2 weeks in PNG. Struggled a bit with my sore wrist. Looking like at least a couple months off from golf trying to recover and get my wrist back to full strength. Thank you everyone for your support. I wish it could be different. Thank you so much. I'll talk to you all soon and hope to make a big return later in 2016. Thank you all
15.01.2022 So today at the Riverlakes Pro am I shot a nice round of 65 (-5) to pencil in my first professional win. Had a great time playing a magnificent golf course and my dad walked the course with me today which was a great experience. Thanks to my sponsors DG Group, Whitecross Healthcare and Simple ID. And a big thanks to Callaway Golf and all my friends and family for their support. On my way to bigger and better things.
13.01.2022 Practicing the wedge game again.
13.01.2022 Yesterday at Middle Ridge Golf Club I notched up win number 2 from 2 starts. I shot a very respectable 4 under par to win by 3 shots. Golf course was awesome as always. Highly recommend getting up there for a game if you have the time. Thanks to everyone around me who helps me do what I do. Next event for me is Caboolture on the 19th of February. Time to make it 3 from 3!
12.01.2022 Over the last 2 weeks I have played numerous events, with varying results. My game feels good at the moment, just needs a little bit of fine tuning to really get to where I want it again. 27/7 - Kooralbyn Pro-am 1 under par (tied 8th) 30/7 - Carbrook Trainee Pro-am... 2 under par (tied 2nd) 6/8 - Palm Meadows Trainee Match 2 under par (1st) 7/8 - City of Brisbane Pro-am 2 under par (tied 19th) 8/8 - Riverlakes Pro-am 3 under par (tied 13th) 9/8 - Howeston Pro-am 3 over par (tied 30th) Great to be out playing a bit more. Really enjoying the journey and loving the game again. There are a few more pro ams to play later this month and early in September. Thanks everyone for the support and kind words.
12.01.2022 What a day! Came away with a win and ran a highly successful day. Thanks to everyone involved. https://m.facebook.com/story.php
11.01.2022 First stage of Australian Tour School finished today. After 3 poor scoring days I managed to be in a 6-way play off for the last spot to Final Stage. Unfortunately I was unable to grab that last spot. I'm unsure of what next year will hold for me. I have Asian Tour School in early January and if I can get the putter rolling over there then I will be able to give myself a chance. It's been a great experience for me playing every event this year and I now know exactly what I ...need to improve to get back there again. Long road ahead but I know I can eventually get there! Thank you to everyone along the way. I can never thank you all enough
11.01.2022 New weekly clinic, Friday afternoons at Burleigh Golf Club. Ever felt like you were playing well but not shooting the scores you think you are capable of. Here is your first step to taking your 'driving range game' to the golf course. Limited to 4 people per week. Bookings can be made using the link below. https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php
10.01.2022 Had a couple very disappointing rounds on a tough layout at Brookwater golf club for the QLD Open last week to miss the cut. Southport pro am was much better but only managed a round of +2 after a rough day with the putter. But yesterday I had a very solid round of -4 at Twin Waters golf club to finish in a tie for 3rd. A much better result and looking to go a couple better this Thursday and Friday at Maroochy river. Onwards and upwards!
09.01.2022 Had a really solid week here at Tahiti. Was -12 though 36 holes, leading by 1. Had a disappointing final 2 rounds of 73, 74 to finish in a tie for 10th. Unfortunately after going through my card a few times and making changes where holes were incorrect I signed it and later found out the card went through as a 73. I did the right thing and called up to ask what the issue was. Unfortunately the card was 73 not 74 so I was officially disqualified from the tournament. After the miscommunication and fault on my part it's a terrible final result but the lesson has definitely been learned and I can only pick myself up and get back to it at the next event. To everyone who followed me and sent kind messages during the week. Thank you so much for all the support from everyone.
09.01.2022 After my round of -1 at kooringal this morning for Vic Open qualifying. It's becoming more apparent that my mental attitude towards putting needs to change. Never getting enough out my rounds and missing far to many easy chances. Only one thing to work on and need to find a way to do it. Can only get better from here
08.01.2022 As some of you may already know, I've had a bit of trouble with hand/wrist the last few months. I found out I have a small cyst in my left hand that was causing me pain through my golf swing. So after taking the necessary steps I am happy to say that I'll be back on course in as little as 2 weeks. See you all back out on course soon. Thanks everyone
06.01.2022 QLD Open this Thursday to Sunday at Brookwater golf club. Get out there at watch some great golf!
06.01.2022 After a solid round of -4 to start the NSW PGA, my next 3 rounds were controlled by the putter to finish the week at +1. It's good to know that only 1 part of my game really needs any work. I'm trying to stay positive after the year I have had. Back to first stage of Tour School this week and Asian Tour School in early January. Thanks everyone
03.01.2022 Pretty much the story of my day today in Kalgoorlie. Will be doing my best to avoid things like this tomorrow.
03.01.2022 Unfortunately missed qualifying for the NZ PGA by a couple shots yesterday. Was a tough day out in the rain but my game certainly wasn't up to standard and it showed in my score. Disappointing day but a big week of practice ahead of the NZ Open qualifying next Monday here in Auckland. Good things don't come to those who wait, good things come to those who go out and make it happen.
03.01.2022 Private and group lessons always available. See below for prices and booking times. You can contact me directly if you have any questions regarding booking times. Start your journey to better golf today. https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php
02.01.2022 This week I played my first Australian Open and in very trying conditions throughout round 1 I had +2 and in round 2 I really struggled with irons and wedges to finish with a round of +8. Another disappointing week and missed cut. It's not the end though. I'm still confident in my game and my ability I just have to do it. Thank you to everyone who has been following me and supporting me along the way.
01.01.2022 A bit of a disappointing result at the Australian Masters all was going well for round 1 and the woke up the morning of round 2 a different man. The previous 4 weeks had finally caught up with me and I couldn't find my swing all day. But it's back to improving the fitness and strength to avoid it happening again. Can't wait to tee it up in the Australian Open this Thursday in Sydney.
