Peter Woodward has claimed victory at the inaugural Sealink Stradbroke Ferries Legends Pro-Am.

With professional golf returning to the North Stradbroke Island Golf Club for the first time in 16 years, the Ladbrokes Legends Tour players were eager to tee it up in the picturesque location.

Woodward fired 4-under 67 to claim the title by one shot from Perry Parker. His round was highlighted by six birdies and counterbalanced by two bogeys.

“The golf course really requires some local knowledge. I think we will play the course a lot differently next time around,” said Woodward.

Singing the praises of the location and tournament, Woodward is sure to return to defend his title.

“I have never been here before and the entire day has been brilliant. From the ferry ride over to the island, the spectacular views in the clubhouse, the welcome to country from the local indigenous community and the wonderful hospitality, all of us professionals have really enjoyed our time on North Stradbroke Island,” added Woodward.

“There is a really community feel over here at North Straddie and it is not hard to see that the golf course is a great benefit to the community.”

The next stop on the Ladbrokes Legends Tour is Mt Warren Park Golf Club on Thursday before the QLD Senior PGA Championship at Wynnum Golf Club starts on Monday.
