After 18 tightly-contested holes, the four-person team from Stewart House emerged the winners, with the individual male winner being Geoff Shephard from CARM with 39 points and the individual female winner being Philippa Palmer from Mission Australia with 30 points.
Longest drive was recorded by Peter McInnes of JPMorgan , while nearest to the pin was won by consultant, Bill Blair.
The editor’s Bradman Trophy was taken out by an IUS team made up of Michael Anderson, Phil Jones, Tony Williams and Lee Frankish.
