Individual achievements included Jack Driver claiming the longest drive, while Jack Flockton secured the nearest the pin accolade. The style stakes were also high as Liam Cotter took home the best-dressed award for his sleek all-grey ensemble.

Funds raised from the event will directly support The Bradbury Foundation's vital work which was formed as a legacy to late Partner, Lee Bradbury who sadly passed away in August 2022 at the young age of 40.
