Lucas loves Bendigo and tries to get home as much as he can these days to catch up with family and mates and immerse himself back into local lifestyle. He always supports local golf tournaments when he can and we at Vital witnessed it firsthand when he returned to play in the Bendigo Christmas Challenge in 2022 which we sponsored.
Lucas is indeed someone who all of Bendigo and Victoria should be very proud of and we wish him all the best with his new challenge at LIV Golf.
