Jacob Boyce has won his third event in a week, this time taking out the 2018 CMR Mackay Pro-Am on the Ladbrokes Pro-Am Series.

""Challenging conditions presented for the final round with a strong South Easterly was gusting throughout the day along with coastal rain showers.

Boyce continued his good form in North Queensland winning consecutive events on the Ladbrokes Pro-Am Series.

Boyce began the day with a one-shot lead over the field and fired 4-under par 67 for a tournament total of 9-under par to claim victory by five shots.

“It was much more difficult playing today and having to deal with the rain as well as the wind," said Boyce.

“I’ve played really consistent golf over the last couple of days, although I had some bad holes on the card, I was able to bounce back with birdies each time."

Victorian professional Ashley Blake has finished outright second after shooting a round of 3-under 68 for a tournament total of 4-under par.

“I really enjoyed the course and putted really well," said Blake.

“I felt like everything just came together today, even in the challenging conditions."

The next best-placed professionals rounding out the top-5 was Chris Wood, Paul Hayden and Nick Russell who all finished on a tournament total of 3-under par.

The next stop on the Ladbrokes Pro-Am Series will be the Rockhampton Golf Club for the Ian Weigh Toyota Rockhampton Pro-Am to be played 5 – 8 July 2018.
