It's a bit of a passing comment, I suppose, but we need to remember who's playing this week, who's not playing, I think, and remember the championship's bigger than any one player.
“We're all here playing for prize money, but I would still be here next year if we weren't. Fraser quick to shoot down suggestions he would give back the winner’s cheque if he were to walk away with the Stonehaven Cup on Sunday after suggesting the tournament could go without prizemoney earlier in the week. The group a further shot back at three under includes a mix of Aussie veterans and up and comers, with Marcus Fraser and Dimi Papadatos, both morning starters, the most recognisable names. This now, it kind of feels normal as much as it isn't, but yeah, I kind of feel like I belong now, which is good.” “I think Fiji was probably a good starting point with the cameras and all that, and then Asian Amateur was the same kind of deal as well. Micheluzzi’s round was built on solid play from tee-to-green, with the lone blemish on the 22-year-old’s card coming at the par-5 14 th, where he found the water fronting the green with a 3-wood, one of only three greens the Victorian missed in regulation.įresh off a T14 at the NSW Open last week and a recent runner-up at the Western Australian equivalent event, Micheluzzi acknowledged a new found comfort playing alongside the professionals helped him find his feet at The Lakes after a nervous strike on the opening hole he estimated only travelled around 220 metres. Really felt like I was back in Melbourne, which is great.” “I'm from Melbourne, this is nothing really.
“Was fortunate enough to hit another heel fade on the second and put myself to about six feet and I holed it, so settled the nerves a little bit.
“I was nervy the first couple holes, I hit a few little heel fades in the first couple tee shots,” Micheluzzi said. Micheluzzi has made a habit of finding himself close to the lead in professional events of late and despite admitting to nerves playing in his maiden Australian Open, he produced one of the best rounds of the day in the most trying conditions. David Micheluzzi had the best of the afternoon rounds in the toughest conditions.
