The prize for best gross score belonged to Tony Knowlson who scored 72 points.

The men’s long drive winner was Vaughn Smith, who also won longest putt on No. 10, and Lisa Andersen took out the ladies’ long drive.

Wayne Hanson claimed the longest putt on No. 4.

Nearest the pin winners included Wez Lynn, Cindy Newhouse, Steve McNally and Aaran Durkin, while Luke Johns, Justin Oui and Tyson Bertrend were among the best shot winners.
