MIDWEEK SENIOR CHALLENGE.
After rolling Indooroopilly and Redland Bay in successive matches in the end of our regular season, our team ventured into Redcliffe for a sudden death semi-final.
Unfortunately, we were beaten 3.5 to 2.5 – a very close match.
Redcliffe went on to win the home and away final 6.5 to 5.5 in a close tussle with Nudgee (1).
Congratulations to Geoff Holding – our Player of the Year – for going through undefeated.
Huge thanks to Rob Brown for his work in captaining the side.
AUSOOM.
Two tournaments – both in QLD.
Gold Coast Senior – played at The Glades. Some super quick, tricked up greens … 3 players from Brisbane GC competed in the event won by Ian Frost (Lakelands) at +2.
QLD Senior – played at Hervey Bay. A great little country course with large quick greens. Take a visit … you’ll enjoy it. Just myself up there, as the event runs at the same time as our major pennant. The event was won by Graham Hourn of Kingaroy on +5.
