Pampling adds to strong Aussie year with Vegas win

It's been a banner year on the PGA Tour for the men from Down Under.

Led by world No. 1 Jason Day, Australians have combined for eight victories this year on Tour, the latest coming when grizzled veteran Rod Pampling held off a pair of challengers to snag the trophy at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.

When we look back on the year that was for the island nation, Day's elite play will stand out, as will Adam Scott returning to the winner's circle twice in successive weeks back in March.
