The New Zealand Open victory for Dimi Papadatos in 2014 came after only 18 months as a professional at The Hills with a stunning 72-hole tally of 18-under par, and he set tongues wagging with his audacious stroke-making.

It sparked a rapid rise for the Australian with wins coming at the Victorian Open and West Australian Open both in 2017. He followed this with a win on the European Challenge Tour and a hugely impressive runner-up finish at the Australian Open in November which saw his world ranking jump 250 places.

He has plied his trade on the Korn Ferry Tour in USA, including runner-up in the Chile Classic when he lost in sudden death.

A popular player with fans and colleagues wherever he plays, Papadatos had his latest success in 2022 with his second victory at the Vic Open with a stunning 21-under par tally.
