A world first tournament also belongs to players of the world. And so on a day when locals wanted Adam Scott and Hannah Green to salute, they were left to salute two overseas stars | SMHsport

South Africa’s Ashleigh Buhai won a nerve-jangling female titleAdvertisement

It might have been a world first tournament, but it also belongs to players of the world. Poland’s Adrian Meronk outduelled Scott for the men’s title, and as fine as a performance as the world No.56 produced, and the respect with which it was given, for locals fans his win was about as well received as Lionel Messi’s left boot.

Scott made bogey on the first, Meronk took the lead with birdie, Min Woo Lee carded an eagle, and Scott’s one-shot overnight lead was gone like that. “It was pretty s--- to begin win, so I’m pretty proud I at least fought back and had a couple of birdies on the back nine,” Green said. The three at the top of the leaderboard were all in the final group to tee off for the women’s draw, and Buhai looked destined to run away with victory turning into the straight.

‘Clear differences between Scott and myself’: Dutton’s plan for a one-term comebackFor those who have been dealing with Peter Dutton for years, the public perception of him as a tough-talking political brawler is worlds away from the man they know. Lord give me strength, Peter knew full well what he was up to, all the lying and wasting taxpayer's money, the manipulating of our system of government, the PR madness and no work done & thought Morrison was clever to get away with it. He also silenced the opposition constantly.
