Lucas Herbert reveals the powerful childhood memory that came flooding back during his sensational round of 62 at The Open Championship.

Herbert also explains why inspiring the next generation matters so much to him, discusses the continued growth of golf in Australia and shares his excitement for the future of the Australian Open.
