Sunday saw the 1st Round of the Invincibles Tour Matchplay Championships held here at Mt Coolum. Four of our juniors, Zac Quirk, Lockie Coleborn and Wade Stockill & Shae Wools-Cobb (both shared with Horton Park) competed in this major junior event.
Wade defeated Zac 2&1. A great effort by Zac as Wade is our 2010 Club Champion and won our 2011 Club Matchplay Championship. Lochie staged a massive comeback from 3 down with 3 to play and won his match on the 19th hole. Shae, our current Club Champion, played solid golf to win 6&5.
Zac & Lochie are in our Junior Pennant team, which gives us hope of a good performance this year.
Wade & Shae will do well at Horton, I’m sure. They are most welcome here at Mt Coolum as they bring good golf to the club to share with our juniors.
