Match Report – Cranbourne Golf Club (Stableford Event) – 26th May 2025

It’s almost winter and a very cold morning, greeted us with strong wind gusts to make the golf quite tricky, Especially into a few of the long par 4’s and the well bunkered par 3’s. The course was in excellent condition for a championship golf course that Cranbourne is.
