Chairman Billy Payne Loves Royal Melbourne!
/With the successful conclusion of the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship and another Masters invite secured, this time for 19-year-old Antonio Murdaca, Chairman Billy Payne took to the press room podium with extras from an episode of Inspector Morse...oh wait, with R&A Chief Inspector Peter Dawson and someone else to express what a great time they had Down Under.
Rod Morri reports on the good time had by all in the green jacket entourage.
“I know I speak for every gentleman here in a green jacket,” he said, “we have found a place that we would like to call a second home.
“And I would, therefore, predict that you will definitely see this championship return to Australia in the not too distant future."
Martin Blake on the winner and his hopes for April.
