Presnell earned his spot in the WGC field as a result of finishing among the top two on the 2009 PGA Tour of Australasia Order of Merit......February: Equalled the Australasian Tour lowest round score ever recorded (also held by Ernie Els, 2004 and Paul Gow, 2001) when he shot a 12 under 60 in the final round to win the 2010 Cellarbrations Victorian PGA Championship at the Sandhurst Club (North Course) in Victoria, Australia - his second professional victory. The round included seven birdies on the front nine and five on the back. Shot rounds of 71,65,70,60 for a total of 266 (-22) to claim victory by one shot over Kurt Barnes and David Bransdon.
