概要

In our summer series of Talk Birdie To Me (or our Winter series if you're a Northern Hemisphere wolfpacker) today we revisit a momentous day in Australian golf, for all the wrong reasons.


In 2002 The Australian Open tournament was cancelled during the first round, during perfect weather. Nick O'Hern and Mark Allen were both playing in the tournament, in separate groups, and Mark was caught right in the middle of the action.


It was so bad, that pros were shooting scores in the 90s on a par 71 course. Extraordinary. Nick and Mark explain, from their different perspectives, what happened on that day and why golf legend Peter Thomson was the saviour on the day.
