Wee Waa Golf Club hosts 2021 Lee Davis Memorial ambrose

Wee Waa Golf Club hosted the 2021 Lee Davis Memorial three-person ambrose on Sunday.

The 18-hole event is played annually in memory of the late Lee Davis, an up and coming Wee Waa golfer who was killed in a tragic accident in the late 80s.

Traditionally, the event’s teams each included a male, a female and a junior golfer, however, teams can now be formed with any collection of players due to a lack of junior golfers involved in the sport in recent years.

There were 43 golfers who took to the course on Sunday. They were spread across 14 teams.

The winning team included Jake Packer and Lucas and Adam Hatton who finished the day three-under-par with a score of 59 nett. Runners-up were Dave, Kerry and Kurt Crutcher, while the pro-pin went to Ben Russell and ladies’ nearest to pin was claimed by Natalie Wohling.
