With the course playing very heavy and the showers continuing just about all day there was just the 11 players who went to the end.

Playing in the morning wave Adam Hudson with 33 points was the runner up.
In the ball competition on the day the winners were Clarke, Hudson, Brad Dyet, Caleb Foran, Zachary Pritchard & Paul Hollis and they can collect the balls from the pro shop at the club anytime along with any unclaimed vouchers from the event.
