A strong field of 18 players gathered on the putting Green for the 2024 Qld Foursomes Championships many dressed splendidly in period style.  Most players had spent some time on the practice range and putting green and there was a real buzz in the air as teams gathered on the first tee for final instructions. The weather was perfect for golf and as usual RQ was in excellent condition.

There were some excellent pairings and some a couple of short priced favourites.

The standard of golf was very high with most teams recording excellent results.  The winners, Rob King- Scott and Chris Cooper combined well and shot 1 over off the stick.  It was only a bit of bad luck that denied them a par round.  The normally hard to impress Ross Bishop commented that it was probably the best foursomes round he had ever witnessed.  High praise indeed!

The Net event was won by the ever consistent foursomes pair of Bradley Tatnell and Illija Solden with a good round of 74 net. 

Runner up in the stroke event went to Bruce Collins and Dave Mansfield with a solid score of 83.

Second place in the Net event went to the perennial bridesmaids of Akes and Akes (76 net).

The rules prohibits the Champions also winning the net event.  If that were not the case the King-Scott/Cooper would have also won the net event by 7 shots! 

Congratulations to all winners...

Also thanks to Ross Bishop for the excellent way he set the course for today’s event .
