The National Tournament played at Noosa Springs resort was a great success. There was a field of 92 players and by the comments and feedback everyone had a wonderful weekend.

Wayne Richardson and his team can be very proud of the first Aussie National Tournament and the weeks of planning and organizing were well rewarded by the enthusiasm, laughter and great camaraderie that were in abundance.

The next National Tournament is to be hosted by Syney North and planning is well under way and no doubt all who attend can look forward to another memorable weekend. There was already talk from some of our international visitors of them returning next year.

For those who did not participate this year, you will hear a lot of comment about Noosa and no doubt next year will see many players returning and a lot of new faces wanting to experience the Nomads spirit of a National Tournament.

There has been considerable interest shown by Australian Nomads to participate in the South African Nationals in Pretoria in April 2010.

Hi Nomads,

Hope you are well.

Just thought I would give you an update on my trip to China. I played in the China Open Amateur from the 17th to the 20th of November at Peach Garden Golf Club and I came tied 11th with rounds of 77, 75, 74 and 77 to finish at +15, the conditions were very tough and the course was playing very long as the winner finished at +6.

I then went to Dragon Lake Golf Club the week after to play in the Aaron Baddeley International Junior Classic at Dragon Lake Golf Club from the 26th to the 29th of November, unfortunately I didn't play too well in this tournament shooting rounds of 77, 76, 78, and 80 which was a bit disappointing but the whole trip was still a great experience!!

How did the charity day go?

I am off to play the JNJGF Celebrity Classic up at Cypress Lakes next week.  That will be about it for 2009. 

Just want to take this opportunity to wish the Nomads, you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Safe and Happy New Year.

Thanks again for all your help this year.

Kind regards,

Jordan Zunic
