David Diaz

Diaz joined the Australasian Tour in 1991, will be contesting the British Open for the first time after he failed to qualify in 1995.
"I went over there in 1995 and hit five under for the first day of qualifying but then went out onto the course and had a look in the morning and it's the worst thing I could have done. I then shot a 73, Diaz said about his 1995 qualifying experience.
Diaz who considered giving up the game prior to a long overdue victory at the 2003 Queensland PGA Championship on the Von Nida Tour. Prior to that victory his last win was ten years prior at the 1993 Schweppes Coolum Classic. He will now take his place in the line up at the St Andrews course at one of the most prestigious tournaments and locations on the world golfing calendar.
