Sanctuary
Cove Golf and Country Club member Cory Crawford has teamed up with good friend and
fellow Tour Pro Aaron Wilkin to claim the coveted QLD PGA Foursomes
Championship.

With an honour
role to match that of any major tournament played across Australia, Crawford
and Wilkin overcame a two shot deficit, after their opening round 2-under 68,
closing with 67 in the afternoon to claim an emphatic three shot victory.

Mitchell
Jacobson and Paul Hayden tied for second with R.J. Caracella and Quinton Howe,
while the defending champions Michael Sim and Matthew Ballard never really got
going finishing in a tie for 13^th.

The
win was timely for both Crawford and Wilkin, with the pair preparing for the
Fiji International which tees off next Thursday.

"We
were actually not planning on playing the Foursomes this year with all the
recent golf we have both been playing, so I am pretty happy right now after
receiving Cory’s phone call on Monday," said Wilkin.

"Although
foursomes is a tough format it is one of the most enjoyable events we play all
year. We both played pretty well, with our playing partners really pushing us
hard over the closing 18 holes."

In
the Senior PGA Foursomes Championship, John Kirchner and David Merriman fired
one of the low rounds of the afternoon, and with their 1-under 69, claimed a
three shot win over Greg Rix and Peter Senior who was playing his first
competitive round since recent shoulder surgery.

While
there were plenty of battles playing out across the golf course, one that may
not have been as close as expected was the QLD Trainee Foursomes Championship.

Yamba
PGA Trainee Louis Brown teamed with Mt Warren Park’s Nicklaus Rogers to claim
an emphatic win, after firing rounds of 76, 70.
