Cameron Smith

'I would be tempted to go': Smith's telling advice to Munster as big $500k call looms.

I think he would be a great marquee signing for them. “I know Wayne would be very keen to coach a second Brisbane team. “And if it is those figures of one million plus and at his stage of his career where he has won premierships and done everything in the game, I couldn’t see why the attraction of the Dolphins couldn’t be too great for him to go.” “At the end of the day there is a huge attraction if I am an NRL player going to the Dolphins as a start-up club with Wayne as coach. “I think Munster would be a great recruit for the Dolphins,” Tate said on The Fox League podcast. “When he is at his best he is a genuine gamebreaker and has an effect on most games that he plays when he is at his best.

Cameron Smith is one of the Tour's best putters. But the changes he's made off the course have been equally key to his success.

“I lost a little bit of weight and my body moves a little bit quicker when I don’t have so much around my belly.” It started with a three-month offseason workout routine. It helped him gain about 10 yards per drive (from a 286 average to 297 yards).

AUGUSTA, Ga. — You could hear the entire continent of Australia groan as Cameron Smith's tee shot on No. 12 splashed into Rae's Creek during the final round ...

To the Aussie's credit, he eventually bounced back with back-to-back birdies on 15 and 16 on his way to a T-3 finish. Even more so after Smith birdied the first two holes on Sunday as the final pairing distanced itself from the rest of the field. That's because as the Action Network's Darren Rovell reported earlier on Sunday, someone had bet on Smith and Scottie Scheffler to finish 1-2 at Augusta National this week.

American Scottie Scheffler shows why he is the world's number one men's golfer, winning the Masters at Augusta National from Rory McIlroy, as Cameron ...

It really doesn't get any better than that. Just about a tap in. He finds the green and keeps it on the right level. He is a truly great golfer, one of the very best in the world. Smith birdied the first two to pull within a shot of Scheffler, only for Scottie to chip in for birdie at the third to flip the script straight back. He's not the first, he certainly won't be the last. A couple of lucky breaks here and there and I'm sure I'll be putting the green jacket on one day. It was a perfect nine iron, and just a really bad swing. It's emotional just getting into this field, so to win is so special for all of them. Thank you so much for your company this morning. By Dean Bilton But the 12th, as it has so many times in Masters history, was decisive.

“Both of us are in good form so I’m definitely looking forward to the challenge of playing with him. The 28-year-old from Brisbane also has his name in the Masters record books already, becoming the first player to shoot in the 60s in all four rounds when finishing joint runner-up – with Im – to Dustin Johnson in 2020. Four months later, the two hottest players in golf made up the final pair in the closing round of the 86th Masters as they threatened to turn the year’s first major into a head-to-head duel.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — The Latest on the Masters (all times local):. ___. 5:50 p.m.. Rory McIlroy finished with a flourish at the Masters.

Wearing his traditional Sunday red, Woods started the day 7 over for the tournament and obviously not in contention. He sent that putt about 6 feet past the hole, then made the comebacker for par. He thought about playing the ball right-handed from very far back in his stance, then went to the other side of the ball, flipped his wedge upside down and hoped for the best. The best round at Augusta National this week is 5-under 67. He said coming into the Masters that just getting back was an accomplishment. Woods shot a 6-over round of 78 on Sunday in the final round. A two-shot swing happened on the par-4 3rd hole. McIlroy, who is missing only a green jacket to complete the career Grand Slam, put together a spirited final round. But his quest for the career Grand Slam will have to wait another year. Smith's last hurrah was a birdie at the tough 11th hole that brought the margin back to three shots. But Scheffler chipped in for an unlikely birdie at No. 3, Smith made bogey and it wasn't really close after that two-shot swing. He finished at 10-under 278 overall, winning for the fourth time in his last six tournaments.

Cameron Smith will not assume the role of Augusta National spectator Sunday. He will play in the final group of the final round with the world's top-ranked ...

Some of the shots you hit it pretty crazy, and there is nowhere else quite like it.” “It was really tough out there today,” Smith said. But not brutal enough to prevent last month’s winner of the Players Championship to put some pressure on Scheffler, whose misadventure on the 18th landed Smith one shot closer to the lead. “No, I think preparation. I think it’s not going to be as windy tomorrow. It was brutal.”

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Cameron Smith closed his eyes once, closed them twice, then let his 9-iron slip from his right hand. He knew right away.

Cameron Smith speaks about the devastating moment when his Masters chances evaporated, describing his water-bound shot on the 12th as "my worst swing of the ...

I feel like it's a place that really suits my game. A dejected Smith was never the same over the closing holes, as he finished up with a 1-over round of 73 that left him four shots from the lead in a tie for third place with Ireland's Shane Lowry. The 28-year-old was within three shots of the lead after a birdie on 11, and he turned up at the famous 140-metre par-three 12th and decided to go for it.

Cameron Smith's hopes of winning his first major vanished on the 12th hole during the final round of the Masters.

Just don't expect the avid rugby fan and occasional fisherman to get consumed by it. He calmly drained a 15-foot birdie on the difficult par-4 11th to move to three shots behind. An opening 39 on Friday led to a 2-over 74, leaving him six shots off Scheffler's pace. In the span of 20 minutes, what looked potentially doable quickly morphed first to doubtful, then impossible. The swing. One that cost him a chance at putting any pressure on eventual champion Scottie Scheffler down the stretch.

A 'glaring weakness' saw Smith 'crash and burn'. What he does next could terrify rivals.

The commitment to that shot was not a good one. “That’s not a small deficiency when you play Augusta. “I feel really comfortably around this place. “It was all fine,” he said. Not his heart.” “We saw it at Sawgrass and he recovered from them. Only your money wouldn’t have been on Smith to capitulate with a short iron in hand. Smith still has the potential to become a giant of the game, with his short game already the envy of many of his rivals. “It was his worst swing of the day by far and it cost him the chance to go down the stretch with Scheffler. “And as much as he was trying to take it on, he knew it wasn’t the right thing to do. Ian Baker-Finch suggested in commentary that Smith might “hit a little eight-iron to the middle of the green” next time on the 12th. “The cavalier way that he plays the game, the swashbuckling way, is going to leave himself prone and open to a lot of mistakes,” McGinley said.

CAMERON SMITH might be nearly 10000 miles from his native Brisbane, but Jacksonville feels like home.The Australian star, 28, is once again chasing M.

I just love it." He explained: "This is my timewaster. Smith isn't just a virtual petrolhead and has a fleet of impressive motors at his disposal, taking pride of place on the front driveway. Smith doesn't even have to leave the property to get in his daily workout, with a large gym set up inside his garage. When Smith wants to kick back after a hard day out on the course there's a huge wall-mounted TV, mini-fridge, and dartboard in the living room. Set out over 5,350sq feet, the property has stunning views of the local waterways and is just a stone's throw away from the Atlantic.

Australian golfer Cameron Smith has heartbreakingly finished third at the Masters Tournament at Augusta National, after finding the water on the 12th hole.

Smith gained a stroke on Scheffler at 11 then lost three at the brutal par-3 12th hole.

His first attack at the 155-yard hole came up short and splashed just shy of the green. Scheffler made par on the 12th as part of a huge momentum swing that significantly shifted the leaderboard, thrusting Smith into third and Rory McIlroy into second. Cameron Smith might have cost himself the 2022 Masters, a green jacket and a large chunk of change on Sunday after a flub-filled 12th hole.

Cam Smith was the one player who had a chance to chase down Scottie Scheffler in Sunday's Masters final round.

“With the advancement in golf, in all of us thinking of ourselves as athletes, you can see the difference. “I think the last maybe seven years of golf since 2015 with Jordan [Spieth], Jason Day, Dustin [Johnson], Rory [McIlroy], Brooks [Koepka], myself, Justin Thomas, many other great players now with Cameron [Smith] and Scottie Scheffler, it’s a perfect example of the Tiger effect,” Rahm said. Just a really bad swing, probably one of the worst swings of the week at the worst time of the week. Not then short-sided into a bunker because of the slopes that they’ve created and stuff. “A couple lucky breaks and I’ll be putting that green jacket on one day.” The 28-year-old Aussie can be a fearless birdie machine, and when he carded birdies on the first two holes, he quickly reduced Scheffler’s three-shot lead to a mere one stroke.

Cameron Smith couldn't replicate the magic he displayed at TPC Sawgrass on the par-3 12th hole Sunday at the Masters.

Cameron Smith pushed Scottie Scheffler through the majority of Sunday at the Masters, but on the 12th hole he hit a shot that he called "terrible"

The ensuing third shot missed the green to the right as he would go on to record a triple-bogey on the challenging hole. After coming up short of the green with his second he would go on to chip in from off the green with his third. The iconic hole once again played a large role in determining the outcome of the Masters, as it has done on numerous other occasions. A mistake off the tee resulted in a tricky second for Smith, who hit a pretty good shot, but it came up just short of the green and rolled back down the hill. That gap was quickly cut down to two after he birdied his opening hole, and it appeared as though we were in for a competitive finale on Sunday at the Masters. Cameron Smith would leave the 3rd hole with his first bogey of the round after failing to get up and down for his Par save.
