Gippsland BMW Pro AM ~ Saturday 16th January 2021

Gippsland BMW Pro AM ~ Saturday 16th January 2021

The Warragul Country Club Pro-Am has a reputation in the PGA fraternity for being one of the most professionally run Pro Am events in Victoria.

The Pro-Am is by far the largest day on the Warragul Country Club’s calendar, and brings with it considerable exposure through the Club as well as local media outlets. The event attracts professional golfers from around Australia and this year’s Pro-Am will guarantee to draw some top line tour players as it will be part of the “Gippsland Swing”. Players use this event as a lead up to the Gippsland Super 6 which is set to be held at Yallourn Golf Club the following week.
This year’s prize purse for professionals is $12,000. The leading professional score will be gifted a BMW to drive for the entire week of the Gippsland Super 6 event, courtesy of Gippsland BMW.  For the third year in a row the Baw Baw Shire Council have kindly donated a separate $2,500 bonus purse for the leading female professional.
Men’s and ladies amateur prizes are valued in excess of $4,000. Gippsland BMW will also provide the leading amateur winner the opportunity to drive a BMW for a weekend.
We look forward to another great day on the 16th!
Heath Jones
Director of Golf

Kevin O'Brien Presidents & Captains Trophy

Kevin O'Brien Presidents & Captains Trophy

Saturday 29th November saw the unveiling of the Kevin O’Brien Memorial Trophy which be played for every men’s President vs Captains day.
It was very pleasing to see a near full clubhouse after golf to be on hand to see the trophy presented to the winners in front of Kevin’s family.
We look forward to honouring Kevin each and every year with this trophy.
Judging by the photo’s, not hard to see which team won on the day!!
