Marc Leishman prepares for #AusOpenGolf and Presidents Cup by mowing the MCG and pouring beers

Marc Leishman’s been mowing lawns and drinking beer in the lead up to the Australian Open and Presidents Cup.

Leishman’s love of his own backyard lawn led to a unique media opportunity which saw the world number 27 hop on a mower and give the MCG a trim.

Then it was off to a bar where Leishman poured, and drank a few pints of Leishman Lager. The bit where Leishman creeps off behind the reported at around the 1min mark doesn’t look staged at all. 🙂
