1451.0. "AUSTRALIAN SKINS GAME" by MRKTNG::WHITTEN (David Whitten @TTB) Fri Feb 14 1992 15:06

    Does anyone in Oz have any details on the Australian Skins game played
    last week?  I saw a brief report in the Boston Globe saying Daly won
    the most money with Norman second & no other skins.
    
    Thanks,

    Daly was the big winner and Norman placed second. They were the only
    two to cash. Baker-Finch and a player from the Asian tour were the
    other two players that didn't cash.

Daly was indeed the big winner at the Australian Skins game played at the Mirage
resort in Port Douglas Queensland. Very nice course BTW..designed by Peter 
Thomson.

The big story was the next week however at the Australian Masters played at 
Huntingdale in Melbourne. Seems John partied in several Melbourne pubs til 
5:00 am or so Thursday morning and then proceeded to shoot a 77. Comes back 
Friday, fires an 81, storms off without signing his card, and gets DQ'd for the
second time in three months.

John has some serious growing up to do.
