Warm and dry conditions didn’t deter Proserpine golfers last week, with players making the most of the fast fairways and steadily improving greens.
Tuesday’s Single Stableford saw John Wallace continue his consistent form, taking the men’s win with 40 points on a countback from James Kontis. In the ladies’ event, Elspeth Scotford led with 39 points ahead of Rehab Hull on 37.
The veterans also produced strong results, with Allison McCarthy again in top touch, carding an impressive 41 points to edge out Scotford and Hull.
On Wednesday, Nicole Cooper delivered a superb 41 points to claim victory in the ladies’ Stableford, with Megan Dwyer and Trish McNeill close behind.
Thursday’s men’s competition saw Paul Joice dominate the B Grade with a standout 42 points, while Jason Bourke took A Grade on countback from Jake Murray.
The Friday 9-hole run, sponsored by the Metropole Hotel, was a close contest, with Trish McNeill taking the win on countback from Paul Skinner, both finishing on 20 points. Harry Milne narrowly missed in the “Putt for Cash,” which jackpots to $950 next week.
Saturday’s Stableford, sponsored by Master Butchers Whitsunday, delivered some of the week’s best scoring. David Woods shot 43 points to claim the B Grade title, while Laurie Dakin took out A Grade with 41. In the ladies’ field, Megan Beker was unstoppable, returning a brilliant 46 points to win ahead of Megan Dwyer (42) and Elspeth Scotford (41).
Sunday’s final event rounded out the week with John Hoey taking the men’s win on 39 points and Peta Thomas edging out Nicole Cooper on countback in the ladies’ division.
