Manage episode 427906189 series 3454561
A massive bonus pod today, Nick O'Hern & Mark Allen chat one on one, okay two on one, with Golf Australia CEO James Sutherland.
In a wide-ranging conversation we cover the key issues:
- Why it has taken so long to announce the venue, format and dates of the 2024 Australian Open.
- The rationale behind Kingston Heath and Victoria Golf Club as the venues.
- Is the mixed format - mens, women's and all abilities - the way forward, and are the imperfections of it acceptable given the benefits.
- Is he open to separating the events in the right circumstances.
- Why the Victoria government has invested in golf, and hosting this tournament in Melbourne.
- If November is the best date for the Open, or if it is the only date that works.
- IF LIV Adelaide been good for golf in Australia.
- Will Golf Australia be offering appearance fees to players like Rory to get them here for the Open.
- Elevation of the Australian events.
- Will the Open be in Melbourne ongoing, or will he consider other states.
- His view on whether the PIF, PGA, DPWT welcome together and how that might look.
It's a ripping bonus podcast from the guy at the top of the tree in Australian golf. Tickets for the Australian Open 2024 are available from Ticketek or AusOpenGolf.com.au.
