It was another warm week at Proserpine Golf Club, with only Thursday’s brief downpour interrupting play. The club also launched a new Skins qualifier event, with round two to be played on November 29 and the grand final set for December.
On Melbourne Cup Day, strong fields turned out for the Single Stableford. Blake Gee (42 pts) and Tina Badenhorst (38 pts) claimed wins in the men’s and ladies’ events respectively, while Larry Muller and Peter Lindsay led the Veterans.
Wednesday’s Monthly Medal, sponsored by PD Law, went to Allison McCarthy (67 nett c/b) from Karen Oni. On Thursday, despite rain interruptions, Lewy Tuck (68 nett) and Blake Gee (64 nett) won the A and B Grades in the Loot Pay Monthly Medal.
The Friday 9-hole Stableford, sponsored by the Metropole Hotel, saw Shirley Larsen win with 22 points. Levi Holmes narrowly missed out on the $1,000 Putt for Cash, coming heartbreakingly close with his first putt.
Saturday’s Allenbuild Stableford produced another round of top scores, with Peter Faust (41 pts) and Rehab Hull (39 pts) taking the honours.
The week wrapped up on Sunday with the first Skins Qualifier, sponsored by Whitsunday Auto Group, where Billy O’Connor and Tim Walton teamed up for victory with a nett 59.75, ahead of Eric Gruszczynski and Dean Barnard (60.5).
