GolfWA enews - Perth International wrap

Hello once again from GolfWA
Wasn't it a fantastic week at the Perth International! We were lucky enough to have two West Aussies in the top ten, with Jason Scrivener finishing third and Brett Rumford seventh.
Now we turn our attention back to amateur golf, with the WA Amateur running next week at Cottesloe Golf Club. Entries are closing very very soon, but if you're quick you might be able to get your name down to play the beautiful Cottesloe Golf Club.
 

Rules Corner: Root of the problem

In this week's Rules corner we look back to the Women's Australian Open, and a certain shot made in the final round by eventual champion Haru Nomura.
In a bunker on the fifth hole, Nomura made contact with what the commentators described as a pine needle on her backswing -- yet she escaped a two shot penalty. What gives? Click here to find out.

Two months until WA Open!

The 2016 Nexus Risk TSA Group WA Open is just two months away, played at WA Golf Club from the 28th of April to the 1st of May.

The move will ensure a stronger local and international contingent with the majority of WA's professional and pro-am events being played between April and June — offering a total prize pool that exceeds $500,000.

Thank-you!

Going behind the scenes at last week's ISPS Handa Perth International, it was clear that the event could not have run without the help from the volunteers.

We loved seeing so many smiling faces as the Blue Shirt Brigade went about their work. We know many of them were local golfers who subscribe to this list, so from the bottom of our hearts -- thank-you for making the event possible!
 

Scott back in winners circle

Our big week in golf extended overseas as Adam Scott got the job done at the Honda Classic in the US.

Congratulations Scotty! Hopefully the form continues into this year's first major.
