Five pairs of Masters tix to be won

Simply register for the BPL daily newsletter (in the top right corner of the home page) and you'll be in the running for one of five pairs of tickets to see the JBWere Australian Masters, at Victoria Golf Club from 15-18 December, valued at $170 each. Each pass is for the two days of play on the weekend.

They will give you access to one of Australia's premier golf courses - Victoria GC which abutts Royal Melbourne on the sandbelt in Cheltenham - and a tournament which this year features a stellar field including world No.1, England's Luke Donald (pictured above), fellow countryman and world No.14, Ian Poulter, teenage Italian sensation Matteo Manassero and a host of leading Australians.

Although his profile is not huge in Australia, Donald has had a magnificent year and the measure of his brilliance came today when he became the first man to win golf's money lists on both sides of the Atlantic in the same season.

Few would have predicted Donald's feat at the start of the season: he had not won in America since 2006 and his sole victory in Europe in the previous six years had come in the relatively small Madrid Masters.

So he comes to Melbourne in rare form and while he's far from the longest hitter on Tour, his short game is sublime, even Ballesteros-esque - about the highest compliment that could be paid to a European player.

Among the Australians competing are Geoff Ogilvy and Presidents Cup teammate Robert Allenby whose relationship infamously hit a rocky patch two weeks ago in the fallout to Allenby's poor week at Royal Melbourne. Surely tournament organisers wouldn't be mischievous enough to pair them together for the opening two rounds?

So get in quick with your registering: the five winners will be notified on Wednesday evening (judge's decision is final) and arrangements made for ticket pick up.
