The first major of the season was settled
between the two hot players at that time - JimDog who had
assumed the mantle of "tour top dog" early
doors, and ErnieB , the champ level specialist who had
earlier stunned the LDSD world with a 49 in the World Cup
at Latrobe. With fairly easy conditions and a forgiving
course, the scoring was always going to be exceptional
and Jims final total of 54 under par was a wonderful
testament to his golfing prowess. The green jacket never
fitted anyone quite so well ..... |
Krokus won the first of his bunch of majors and came 7th overall, while BoomerBaz won pro and Dingo the amateur - both these would leave the tour before the end of the year. German golfer Kicker would win the club event to complete a super start to the season for him. |
