Twenty-three combatants bid for bragging rights at Sunday’s Dawnbusters round in magnificent conditions at Carpentaria Golf Club.
Flies were not in short supply for the five groups, nor was tight scoring as nine players kept in the grouping of 42 to 44 shots.
Chelsea Buckley, who hit a 55 off the stick netting at 6, took out the morning. Chelsea has just returned from an eight-week break due to a finger injury which resulted in her DNF (did not finish) last week when she attempted to rejoin Dawnbusters a little early.
Rewarded this week for her perseverance, Chelsea said her persistence and resilience in the face of adversity sealed victory – this and her handicap!
PK (Peter Kenny) took out the Bridesmaid to grab second position with a 43 off the stick netting an 11.
Les Sariman proved the left handers can mix it with the best and put in the longest drive for the men’s on the 1st fairway with Vivian Chan winning the women’s longest drive.
Beth Dall took out the highly sought-after Hoffman’s award beating her nearest competitor Kate Kennett by four shots.
Vivian showed her abilities as she double dipped the prizes by taking out the Nearest the Pin on the 9th.
The Dawnbusters next week take on the back 9; groups are expected to tee off from about 6:15 am. New players are welcome.
Only three games remain before the Dawnbuster Championships on Sunday 9 November.
