4 February 2017 - Woolooware Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 6:10am

The course was in very poor condition with more than half the greens in a poor state of disrepair with some fairways defined as GUR in parts.The 5th green was replaced with a temporary green. It may take a long time for the course to get back to its previous high quality.

The Guzzlers Cup was won by Mark Saunders. Mark shot 7 over par for the day which was simply amazing considering the condition of the course.
