In a year to remember for Australian sporting Cameron Smiths, the 24-year-old Queenslander punctuated his maiden win on the US PGA Tour earlier this year to claim the Joe Kirkwood Cup and continue his ascent up the world rankings.
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.

Sergio Garcia insists Adam Scott made a concerted effort not to let it come in contact with his body during the first round of the Australian PGA Championship.
