Kiwi golfers in form for Perth International

6:20 pm on 17 October 2013

Half a dozen New Zealand golfers tee off today in Australia's richest tournament, the 2.4 million dollar Perth International.

Three of the Kiwis contingent have been in good form lately - Mark Brown, Gareth Paddison and Josh Geary, the latter breaking through for his first professional win .... a 5 shot victory at the West Australian Open.

There's a strong European entry, and among the international favourites are the big hitting American star Dustin Johnson, and his countryman Bo Van Pelt, the defending champion.
