Eighty-four players teed up to support the 2019 Middlemount Open last Saturday with six players carding a score of par or better.
A fantastic turnout of lady golfers saw the field return 22 scores for the day with Tieri’s Lily McKelvie leading the charge in the morning returning a 1 under 72 to claim the 2019 ladies open title.
The men provided an equally hot day of scoring with three scores of 71 returned with Blackwater’s junior talent Brock Olive taking out the Men’s 2019 title.
Further achievement on the day worthy of great note was the Hole in One from Jeff Olive on the 169m 3rd hole. Congratulations Jeff!
The golf course presented at its best for many months with the extraordinary effort of volunteers and the scores on the day reflected its significant improvement.
Thank you to all the players who travelled from Central Highlands and Central West region to make the day a success.
With the Pro-Am to be held on 4 & 5 June the course is providing a great challenge for those still looking for an opportunity to play with some of Australia’s upcoming professional talent. Nominations are still being taken with both AM and PM slots available. If you would like to play please email Middlemount Captain, Scott Hampton at mgcccaptain@gmail.com.
