Australia's Nathan Holman has been named the Hilton European Tour Golfer of the Month for December after his victory in the Australian PGA Championship.

Holman claimed his first professional title at the RACV Royal Pines Resort, beating South Africa's Dylan Frittelli and American Harold Varner on the first hole of a play-off.

Holman said: "It's a really big honour for me and it's great to be recognised for my feats; it's something I'm really proud of. I've got a bit of added attention on me now that I've won a tournament, being drawn in bigger groups at events, and I'm really enjoying it all. I'm playing with a bit more confidence knowing I can compete out here and that I belong.

"The win has definitely opened some doors - I've got The Open Championship coming up in the summer and a couple of World Golf Championships, so I'm looking forward to them very much."
