AHPGA Student Comes Close in South Africa
By Tony | December 12, 2007
Australian High Performance Golf Academy student Matthew Melrose narrowly missed qualifying for the South African Airways Open last night. Matt attempting to qualify for his national championship ( Matt comes from South Africa) for the first time shot a superb 5 under 67 in the pre-qualifying stage. This score placed him into a sudden death playoff, where unfortunately Matt failed to progress to the championship proper.
This years South African Airways Open field includes Ernie Els, Retief Goosen, Greg Norman, Trevor Immelman and a host of stars. Many of these players are Matt`s boyhood heroes, and I know he would love to have had a chance of playing alongside these great players.
This was a great effort from Matt and all of the team at AHPGA congratulate him on his outstanding performance. Next year Matty!
