	Athletes - Aaron Baddeley

Aaron Baddeley is a professional golfer. He was born on 17 March 1981 in Lebanon, New Hampshire, USA and now plays on the U.S. based PGA Tour, but has joint U.S. and Australian citizenship and was raised in Australia from the age of 2.

When he was in his late teens Baddeley was seen as one of the most promising talents in world golf. He was the youngest player ever to represent Australia in the Eisenhower Trophy and he won the Holden Australian Open as an amateur in 1999 and retained his title in 2000, by which time he had turned professional. In 2001 he won the Greg Norman Holden International in Australia, which is his only other professional win to date. He is yet to fulfil his early promise and has come to be overshadowed by his Australian contemporary Adam Scott, who is less than a year older than Baddeley but reached the world top 10 in 2005.

In 2002 Baddeley played on the second tier Nationwide Tour in the U.S. and placed tenth on the money list to earn a PGA Tour card for 2003. His best finishes on the main tour are second places at the 2003 Sony Open in Hawaii and the 2004 Chrysler Classic of Tucson. After a solid rookie season, when he finished 73rd on the money list, he only just retained his card in 2004, when he came 124th. He produced better form in the first half of 2005, but remains a long way from becoming a regular contender for prestigious titles as was anticipated of him as a teenager.
