I got the opportunity to represent Australia in Tokyo in 2021, so that was a huge honor to do that. I played pretty decent. I came in top 10.

GW: There is talk of a mixed event next time. Is that something that gets you going?

Yeah, that’s something I was hoping they would do for this year. It was really cool with Cam and Marc Leisch and the team last Olympics. We got hang out with them a couple nights. It was just fun to interact with them, because our schedules don’t really collide too much. Even though we play a couple events in Australia, we don’t really get to see each other because they’re some of our biggest weeks.

A mixed format would be amazing. I heard the Grant Thornton went really well last year, so hopefully we can do that for when we come back in LA.
