British Open champion Cameron Smith to headline Australian Open field

The Claret Jug is bound for Australia after world No.2 Cameron Smith confirmed he will headline Australia’s two biggest tournaments during the summer of golf.

Despite Smith being on the verge of a defection to Greg Norman’s Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour, the 29-year-old Queenslander won’t be prevented from playing the Australian PGA at Royal Queensland and the Australian Open at Kingston Heath and Victoria Golf Clubs in Melbourne. “I’ve had an unbelievable year and to be coming home to play tournaments is the icing on the cake,” Smith said.“I’m so excited to see friends and family again. Some of them I haven’t seen for years now and once I get to the golf course, I’ve got my eye on some more trophies.“It will be my first time playing in Melbourne since the 2019 Presidents Cup which was one of the best experiences I’ve had in golf.
