 Jennian Homes Charles Tour – Barfoot and Thompson Akarana Open Obviously it’s Masters week, aka the greatest week in golf… But while we don’t have any Kiwis to cheer for at Augusta, there will be plenty of our top players in action in the season opening Barfoot and Thompson Akarana Open. Mike Hendry and Josh Geary will headline the field as they sharpen their games for upcoming assaults on the Japan and European Tours. Joining them will be likes of Gareth Paddison, Harry Bateman, Mark Brown and Ryan Chisnall, so as usual there should be some super low scoring on the Akarana Course. http://www.pga.org.nz/tournament%20detail?competitionid=597564 Australasian Legends Tour Martin Pettigrew and Peter Hayes line up at the lucrative David Mercer Senior Classic at the Killara Golf Club in NSW. The Masters We are really looing forward to this one, Tiger is back and in great form and he is not along, Phil Mickleson is back to his best and a proven performer at Augusta as is Bubba Watson who won a couple of weeks ago, Jordan Spieth is looking like he is about to peak at the right time, look out for Rory McIlroy and Jason Day who are both fired up for this week, and the current world number one Dustin Johnson cannot be counted out, nor can last years form player Justin Thomas. We have not even mentioned the defending champion Sergio Garcia who will be determined to defend his green jacket. Keep you eye out for last weeks winner Ian Poulter and our roughie – The big Aussie Marc Leishman. We also like the look of the big hitting Spaniard Jon Rahm and Englishman Justin Rose, this is going to be a great week of golf and if you can not be there follow the action at |
