THE Tuross Country Club held a Seniors Open on Sunday, October 12 with invitations to both men and lady golfers to participate in an 18 hole stableford event to determine winners in what is destined to be an annual competition. A highlight of the play format was that although men and lady golfers competed in their own divisions they were able to play as mixed foursomes. This was a variation to the sub clubs weekly competitions where this is not possible. A nice change and a welcome variation to our members.
