Lack of practice paying off for veteran Davies
Davies arrived at this week's ANZ Australian Ladies Masters after claiming her 73rd worldwide title at the New Zealand Open last Sunday. It was also her 39th title on the Ladies European Tour.
She's also won four majors, including the 1987 US Open, and is close to being considered for the Hall of Fame, needing just one more major or two LPGA wins.

"You see so many young players now injured all the time, maybe it has something to do with all the practice," said 46-year-old Davies.
"If you want to play the amount of time I have played – this is my 23rd season – you can't stand on the range all day. You have to be sensible."
