Flanagan wins third and qualifies for the PGA Tour

Aussie Nick Flanagan won his third tournament on the Nationwide Tour this year, the Xerox Classic at Irondequoit Country Club, Rochester, New York. By winning the Xero Classic, Nick Flanagan earned an automatic promotion to PGA Tour. Way to go Nick! However Nick will have to wait until later in the year, after the Fedex Cup playoffs, before he will be able to tee off on the PGA Tour.

As it stands at writing this, and I'm sneaking this post in a bit late, there are three Australian's in the top twenty five, thus in line for PGA Tour qualification for next year. Nick of course at number two, although it doesn't matter as he's already qualified is one ahead of Jason Day. The surprise packet is Matthew Jones at number seventeen. Also there are a few Aussies sitting just outside the top twenty five - Scott Gardiner, Greg Chalmers and David McKenzie.
