In what has been a great summer for Australian tournament golf, the final act will be a contest of one of the best leaderboards we've seen in recent times.
Out of the top 13 Australians in the world golf rankings, nine sit inside the top 12 at Coolum. This PGA Championship is shaping as an opportunity for one of them to grab prime bragging rights.
Incidentally, the player running second, Greg Chalmers, is not among those top dozen. He's hardly a spoiler though, and there's one thought we can't get out of our head - after the Australian Masters, when Chalmers appeared in the media centre, he was complimentary but couldn't mask his genuine disappointment that he hadn't beaten Tiger Woods that day. Don't expect the '98 Australian Open champ to take a backward step tomorrow.
