The latter was a semi-official publication containing proclamations, regulations and it was censored by the government. ''The Australian'' was the first independent newspaper. Governor Brisbane realised there was little point in continuing to censor ''The Sydney Gazette'' when ''The Australian'' was uncensored and so government censorship of newspapers was abandoned in 1824 and the freedom of the press began in Australia. History The early years The first issue of ''The Australian'' appeared on Thursday, 14 October 1824. The owners of the newspaper were two lawyers, Robert Wardell and William Charles Wentworth.

To date the course has held 20 Australian Open events and most recently in 2017 the event was won by Australian Cameron Davis. The course has been rated the 9th best in the country. Course Early history The Australian Golf Club was founded in 1882, which makes it the oldest golf club in Australia followed by Royal Melbourne Golf Club (founded 1891). However, The Australian did not have a golf course between the years of 1888 and 1895, which has led to debate as to which golf club is the oldest. The club's first golf course was situated in Moore Park, a suburb of Sydney, but due to a new road the course had to be abandoned six years later in 1888. In 1895 a second, eleven-hole course was built in Waverley, which was used until 1898, when the club's lease expired. The course then mo ...
