Hannah Green is like a flower late in winter. Just one day in the warm Adelaide sun and you get the strong feeling that she’ll blossom and the whole golfing world will take in her game in all its glory. The West Australian, Australia’s leading amateur, has received a sponsor’s invite to play in this week’s ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open.And the progression in her game even has the typically modest Mount Lawley star upbeat.
Green, 19, is in the throes of planning her progression to the professional ranks later this year.
But in having played the past two weeks among many of the sport’s top pros, including world No.1 Lydia Ko, she’s already starting to feel at home.
A pair of weekend 69s at 13th Beach enabled her to soar to three under and T11 at the Vic Open, then another closing 69 at Clearwater, near Christchurch, meant the Golf Australia national squad member climbed to four under and a T10 finish in the NZ Open at the weekend.
“I feel excited about the week and my game … especially after the last two weeks,” Green said.
“Not to sound cocky or anything about it, but I feel like I’ve played well the last two weeks and better than I scored (looking externally).
“Hopefully I can get it together this week and get some good rounds in.”
