Six of the very familiar faces at Sporters each week are Charlie Morrison, Don Warrener, Eamon Cockram and Trevor Davies. This week the group will play their last game of Sporters for around six weeks. The intrepid group of travellers and their respective partners are set to head west and embark on the Outback Masters Tournament.
The Outback Queensland Masters is Australia’s most remote golf series spanning an epic 2,000+ kilometres across Queensland’s Outback.
Starting on 18 June the group will play two days in Roma, where the city meets the outback before moving on to Tambo, Barcaldine, into dinosaur country and north to Mt Isa before wrapping up at Birdsville on the edge of the Simpson Desert.
The first five events will include a designated $10,000 hole-in-one, open to all players as well as some great prizes for those who play three or more events.
The tournament culminates with a three-day event at the Dunes Club in Birdsville on Friday 23, Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 July. On Sunday, eligible players (those who have played at least two of the previous locations) will be teeing off for a chance at the Million Dollar Hole-In-One.
Throughout the trip, all golfers including our travellers will be able to draw on free advice and tips from PGA Professional, Darren Weatherallon.
Sporters wish the tourists the best of luck on their trip. It certainly sounds like a great adventure. Enjoy, play some good golf, have manageable hangovers and find your way safely back home with some amazing memories are the instructions from Sporters.
