Alistair Presnell did a great job of putting everything into perspective after his blistering final round 64 earned him a T6 finish and his biggest ever paycheck at the WGC CA Championships. Speaking to reporters after his round, he spoke about his earlier conversation with some of the other Aussies at the event :

“I was talking to the boys the other night and they were talking about their Porsche GT3s and I’m thinking about my $5,000 car back home,” he said with a laugh.

With a check of US $214, 300, he could probably get a pretty decent upgrade.

Presnell finished with 3 straight birdies (he had 9 for the round) in his round of 64. His coach Darren Cole was understandably delighted with his performance :”Alistair has already proved his ability to go low with performances like the 60 he shot to win the Victorian PGA Championship. He’s got the confidence to take it low, and to be able to do that at the highest level is just going to give him a ton of self belief for the future”.
