On the chilly morning of July 21, 2024, 18 members of the Whitsunday Golf Club gathered for the Mark Nicol Memorial Trophy event, a 2-ball Ambrose competition, which was Mark Nicol’s favourite format. Despite heavy fog on the drive into Proserpine, the event kicked off under pleasant sunshine. However, a cool breeze picked up later in the morning, making the last few holes more challenging. Nonetheless, the winning scores reflected impressive play.
