Lachlan Aylen has cruised to a five-shot victory to claim the Vic/Tas PGA Associate Championship.
The second year PGA Associate at the Eynesbury Golf & Homestead in Victoria, lead wire-to-wire to secure the title, and created tournament history in the process.
Aylen shot a steady 1-under par 71 around the Captains course of the Tocumwal Golf & Bowls Club to record a comfortable victory.
The forecast was a foggy start to the morning but the players awoke to another beautiful Tocumwal morning.
There was no breeze to speak of and the only challenge that was presented to the players was the Captains course and their quick greens.
