Foundation
member and Director of the Mongrel Tour. Recorded best result at '90
Masters when runner up to Noni Scanlon. Career has followed similar
path to Ian Baker Finch, many believe he should also give up golf and
take up commentating. Former winner of Longest Drive in 1991.
2001 was a
year the King would like to forget having recorded his worst ever
result and score. He plummeted to 16th on the leader board and racked
up the half ton on the score card. That same year he was elected as a
Life Member of the Mongrel Masters.
An historic
turn around in 2002 saw the King record his best round and shave 13
strokes off his score and the same number of positions on the leader
board. This led many to believe that this was one of the greatest scoring
rorts of all time, taking even him to a new level of fictional recording.
Organisers have now marked his cards and will never let him in a position
where he can repeat such a feat. His cheque for $190,000 made him only the
5th million dollar earner on the tour.
As
predicted, the King to plummeted to 15th position on the Leaders Board
in 2003 due to measures being taken to ensure he was not penciling the scores.
The 12 position and 13 stroke turn around is the third largest one
year decline in form in history.
