Dustin Johnson insisted he was back to full strength this week from the staircase incident during the Masters. However, the No.1 player in the world admitted the injury kept him from practising while on the sidelines.
As Australia’s Curtis Luck, the 2016 US Amateur champion, plays the Valero Texas Open in his first start as a professional, he’ll be cashing a cheque this week regardless of whether he makes the cut.
The field for the 81st Masters contains 94 players. But only one ponytail. So picking out Curtis Luck shouldn’t be a problem for anyone inclined to follow the 20-year-old West Australian.
It’s official: Curtis Luck is Masters-bound. The West Australian amateur star is among the recipients of 2017 Masters Tournament invitations, which were sent from Augusta National Golf Club last week.
With a phenomenal amateur golf record, and a quirky ponytail and beard combination to match, Aussie golf fans can get used to seeing Curtis Luck on their screens.
