• South Georgia Classic Pres'd by First State Bank and Trust Company: Missed the cut in his first four starts before breaking through with a win at the South Georgia Classic in Valdosta in mid-April. Fired a final-round 70 for an 11-under 277 total, one better than second-year pro Jhonattan Vegas. Moved to the lead with birdies at Nos. 8, 10 and 11 and led by three at one point on the back nine. Played the final seven holes in 1-over par, but it was enough to hold off Vegas, who was 2-under on his final eight holes.

Posted an 8-under 136 total for two days at the famed Kingston Heath layout in Melbourne. Has been successful in all three attempts to qualify for the Open.

2009 Season

• Albertsons Boise Open Pres'd by Kraft: Earned his first top-10 of the season with a T3 at the Albertsons Boise Open after making the 36-hole cut on the number. Started the final round T44 and moved up with the day's lowest score, a 6-under 65 that vaulted him up the leaderboard. Finished his round 3:15 in front of the final pairing. Start was only his second since returning to Australia in early June, thinking he might give up the game.

2008 Season

Korn Ferry Tour campaign was a season of extreme highs and lows for the Australian who made eight cuts in 24 starts. Made five cuts in his next 11 starts after his win at the Moonah Classic, with a best finish of T38 at The Rex Hospital Open. Dropped outside "The 25" for the first time after the Albertsons Boise Open. Suffered a dismal finish to the year when he failed to make a cut in his final 11 starts, including a WD at the Chattanooga Classic and a DQ at the Web.com Tour Championship, where he dropped from 34th to 41st on the money list. Missed the cut at both the 2008 Open Championship and Dunhill Links Championship on the European Tour.

• HSBC New Zealand PGA Championship: Finished T48 in his first start of the season, the HSBC New Zealand PGA Championship before collecting his first career top-25 finish on the Korn Ferry Tour in impressive fashion, winning the Moonah Classic with a 13-under 275 total. His seven-stroke win is eclipsed only by Chris Smith's 11-stroke win at the 1997 Omaha Classic, fellow Australian, Marc Leishman's 11-stroke win at the WNB Golf Classic and Chris Nallen's eight-shot victory at the 2004 Gila River Golf Classic. Jumped to the top of the leaderboard with a 5-under 67 and held at least a share of the lead the rest of the way, closing with a 6-under 66 to distance himself from his nearest challengers. Collected $148,248 with the victory to move to No. 2 on the official money list.
