It's hard to believe Aaron Baddeley once thought of quiting golf and returning back to his native Australia because he was homesick. That didn't become a reality and he's now the 2007 Australian Masters Champion after defeating Daniel Chopra with a birdie on the 4th playoff hole in Melbourne. His hard time in the US back in 2000 obviously has paved the way for the this guy to rise to #18 in World Rankings(soon to rise after this weeks win). Nice season for Aaron as he won this year on the PGA Tour at the FBR Open, he also had 7 top tens. Stuart Appleby might of also been in the playoff too but his double bogey on #18 killed any chance of that.

"Golf was just too hard, I was homesick and I wanted to come back to Australia and things were just too difficult."

Badds is a great golfer. His consistancy is definitely a stand out feature of his game. He was also the highest place Aussie at the PGA Champs last week also.
Great blog btw Sean, I always see your clips on Youtube. Congrats
