After an absence from Weipa, Dawnbusters stalwart Grant Crossley made his return to Carpentaria Golf Club felt by his opponents when he eked out a narrow victory on 29 September.

Crossley fired 49 off the stick for a winning nett 18, with Mick Cernaka unlucky to take the bridesmaid title on countback from Dave Sands after carding an impressive gross 40 for a nett 19.

Jim Lucas continued with his recent big-hitting ways to claim the men’s long drive.

Krystle Ellis was crowned the Hoffman’s winner for the week.

Crossley said he believed his win was “well deserved” and that it was a reminder he was back in Weipa and ready to add to his win tally, a taunt Cape York Weekly understands none of the other 10 players took seriously during the clubhouse debrief.

Dawnbusters will tackle the back nine on 6 October, with the first group of players set to tee off from sunrise at about 6:30am.

New golfers are always welcome to join the Sunday morning action.
