New South Welshman Blake Windred has thrown the monkey off his back and claimed his maiden professional victory at the Victorian PGA Championship at Moonah Links today.
With a new season comes new hope, and for the players teeing it up in the Victorian PGA Championship at Moonah Links on the Mornington Peninsula from today, there is a sense of optimism.
As was the format earlier this year, the Legends course will host the first two rounds of the championship with the Peter Thomson-designed Open course – host to the 2003 and 2005 Australian Opens – to determine the champion over the final two rounds.
Winner of the 2017 Morobe Open in Papua New Guinea, Wood posted 20-under and then had to watch and wait as the final group all chased the eagle that would have forced a playoff.
