Mick Cernaka produced a reappearing act to remember when he took home the Dawnbusters winner’s chocolates in Weipa on 11 May.
After being missing in action for several weeks, there were concerns he had been off hiding and licking his wounds after a sub-standard Wackers performance, however, he fired off a gross 41 to return to the Carpentaria Golf Club clubhouse with nett 19, relegating Scott Andrews (42/20) to be his magician’s assistant on countback from Grant Crossley.
Richard Dawe and Viv Chan were the best in the bumper field of 24 golfers with the big sticks and claimed the men’s and women’s long drives respectively.
Beth Dall bagged the weekly Hoffman’s crown, while Les Sariman took the pin prize on the 18th.
Following his victory, Cernaka said he wanted to send a message to Wackers stalwart Steve Head.
“How do you like those magic apples, Steve?” he asked.
“You wanted me to reappear, and now I have, and I’m going to pull the Dawnies-Wackers double out of the hat.”
Dawnbusters tee off from about 6:45am every Sunday morning and new players are always welcome.
