The final Monthly Medal (MM) of the year saw a modest turnout at Whitsunday Golf Club, with eight players hitting the course for this last event. Despite the low numbers, players were treated to ideal conditions with a cool breeze. The sandy greens presented a challenge, testing the players’ putting skills and accuracy on a course known for its tricky greens.
Standout Performances
Anna Winterbourn stole the show with an impressive performance, carding a 91 off the stick and finishing with a nett 66. Her strong play earned her the title of Ladies' Winner, and she also claimed the Longest Drive. In the men's division, Ron Jamieson came close with a solid nett 69, just edging out Mark McDougal, who posted a respectable nett 70.
