Conran goes low at St Georges Basin Pro-Am


Gusting winds in the opening round of the St Georges Basin Legends Pro-Am weren’t able to stop Steve Conran from getting the hot start he needed to win in New South Wales.

A first round of 5-under 65 set Conran up for an impressive 9-under two-round total to claim a one-shot victory at St Georges Basin Country Club.

A number of challengers presented in the final round but Conran was able to remain steady, crediting his mental strength for a second scorecard of 4-under 66.

“When I played some holes here on Monday I felt the course was really suited to my game,” Conran said.

“Just because a course sets up well for you doesn’t always mean you play well so I’m really glad I got the job done.”

Identical rounds of 67, 65 from Michael Harwood, Shaquill Mongol and John Onions saw the trio tie for second place at 8-under the card.

Brad Burns, Richard Gilkey, Grant Kenny and Allan May highlighted the level of competition on the Ladbrokes Legends Tour to finish T5 at 4-under.

A further five players including Peter Senior, Glenn Joyner and Terry Price tied for ninth place at 3-under 137.

The Ladbrokes Legends Tour will next tee it up at the Worrigee Links Legends Pro-Am.
