Hole-in-One by Pete McKay highlights Euroa Autumn Tournament

NAGMABIE GOLF CLUB By DAVID LOVE Michael Roberts delivered an exceptional performance in Sunday's Par event at Nagambie Golf Club. Playing off a handicap of four, Roberts achieved a plus six score, equating to a two-under-par 70. This remarkable round is likely to be recognised on the club's honour board as the year's best Par score. His impressive driving off the tee, complemented by precise iron play, contributed significantly to his success. Lindsay Hall secured the runner-up position with a plus two finish, which included two nearest-the-pin awards. Peter Lawrence also posted a plus two score, rounding out the top three and displaying strong form ahead of upcoming major events. The nearest-the-pin accolades were claimed by Joe Labas at the third hole, Lindsay Hall at both the eighth and 13th holes, and Jeremy Ezard at the challenging 16th hole. Looking ahead, next week's competition will be a Stroke event, marking the fifth and final round of the Summer Trophy. On office duty will be B. Cryer, with P. Neville tending the bar.
