Talented A Grade golfer Blake Jorgensen combined with WDF to win Wagga Wagga Country Club’s inaugural edition of Moneyball on Saturday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WDF, a loyal sponsor of the club, is $20,000 richer after Jorgensen delivered the goods from the 17th Shootout position in front of a big crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jorgensen put his second shot just 90cm from the pin. It proved enough to take out the $20,000 prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WDF director Charles Talbot snapped up Jorgensen for his company’s slot after getting a first-hand look at his game in a recent RL Smith Matchplay fixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rest is now history as Jorgensen stayed cool under pressure to win the event in it’s first year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It was a fantastic shot,” Talbot said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I played Blake in RL Smith Matchplay a couple of weeks back and he pasted me seven under through eight holes so I picked the right man to have the shot I think.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
