Aussies Hailed As New Kings Of Golf

1985 Dunhill Cup
Venue:St. Andrews Golf Links, Old Course
Where:St. Andrews, Scotland

Greg Norman steered Australia to a crushing 3-0 victory over the UnitedStates in the inaugural Dunhill Cup at St. Andrews.

Norman dropped eight birdies in a course record tying 7-under-par 65 todefeat Mark O'Meara by a whopping eight shots.

West Australian Graham Marsh posted a 71, three shots clear of RaymondFloyd, to seal the victory for Australia in golf's first $1 milliontournament.

David Graham finished off the top-seeded Americans as he coasted home infront o nearly 10,000 spectators at the Old Course. Graham finished with a69 and beat Curtis Strange by three strokes.

The Australians collected $100,000 each for their stunning victory.

Norman blitzed O'Meara on the front nine with five birdies in an outward 31and stormed home with three more birdies on the inward half.

It was Norman's day, as it had been Norman's tournament. "Greg Norman issomething else," Graham said. "He blew everyone away this week."

Marsh was a steady No. 2, and took the pressure off Graham in the lastmatch -- a fact Graham duly acknowledged. Marsh predicted the victory wouldprovide an enormous boost for golf in Australia.

"Probably because we are so far away from everyone else we don't have theopportunity to prove ourselves so often in team matches," he said. "Thereis a tremendous amount of talent in Australian golf, an we have a fine cropof youngsters."
