“It is exciting, I wanted to get my name along the other great players to have won, so I am pleased to have done it.”

“It’s great to have the Club Car Series, today for example, you really want to play well for the Club Car, as well as the tournament, it’s nice to have something else to go for.”

NSW’s Rachel Hetherington finished second on the points table with 613.75 and takes home $3,500.

Kevin Gates, Vice President (Asia/Pacific) was on hand to present to congratulate the winners and hand out the cheques.   He spoke about how he wants to continue the Series next year and beyond and the reasons why,

“The association of the Club Car Series is great for us. We are supporting women’s golf, which is really important to us globally, as well as a company here in Australia.” Gates said.

“We want to continue support the girls, to provide them with something to play for in a compressed time-frame.”

“Next year we will also be working increasingly with host venues, to provide support at a local level and engaging our local distribution partners where the local events are and get more heavily engaged at the actual events.”
