Green was born in Newcastle, New South Wales. He turned professional in 1998. In 2000 he won the Queensland PGA Championship in Australia and the Benefit Partners/NRCS Classic in Canada. He played on the second tier Nationwide Tour in the United States in 2002, 2004 and 2005 and was a rookie on the PGA Tour in 2006.
