Rebecca Coakley made that well worn journey to Australia to compete in the ISPS HANDA Women's Australia Open this week and so far has been rewarded with third place in the club house following a round of 68.
An error free opening day saw the Carlow native sign for five birdies in the first event of the Ladies European Tour season.
The leader is currently shared by Meissa Reid of England and Jiyai Shin of Korea.
