He is the man being credited with unleashing the “scary potential” hiding within 25-year-old Jordan Zunic and now Nick O’Hern has revealed just what his new pupil must do to claim the Australian PGA Championship at RACV Royal Pines Sunday.
A former Wauchope Blues goal-kicking front-rower who has turned to Adam Scott’s coach to cure his conniptions with the putter is one of a host of players who need a miracle final round to deny Jordan Zunic the 2017 Australian PGA Championship.
With the opportunity to assume the mantle of Australia’s No.1-ranked male golfer by claiming the Joe Kirkwood Cup on Sunday, Leishman’s position at the top of the leaderboard alongside Adam Bland after 36 holes is to be expected but Pete Senior’s spot just inside the top 10 is a shock to all but his fellow professionals.

Adam Scott today confirmed he will put the long putter back in play at this week’s Australian PGA Championship with a view to a permanent return in his bag, inspired by the success of Bernhard Langer and Scott McCarron on the Champions Tour.
The lure of playing in front of a home crowd has convinced Peter Senior to come out of tour retirement to tee it up at the Australian PGA Championship.
