Toowoomba will once again host some of the ISPS HANDA PGA Tour of Australasia’s brightest stars when the Coca-Cola QLD PGA Championship tees off next February.

Having hosted the tournament since its return to the garden city in 2009, the City Golf Club will stage the 2018 installment from 15-18 February, as part of the ISPS HANDA PGA Tour of Australasia.

“We are thrilled to sanction the Coca-Cola QLD PGA Championship in Toowoomba once again this year. The City Golf Club has been and continues to be a great partner and driver of this tournament,” said Simon Butterly, General Manager – Tournaments for the PGA of Australia.

Each year the QLD PGA Championship attracts a strong field to contest the title with recent winners including Steven Bowditch, Brad Kennedy and European Tour regular Ryan Fox.

The 2017 edition was again another thrilling tournament; New Zealand’s Daniel Pearce eight shot lead was erased by Canberra’s Matt Millar to force an enthralling three-hole playoff in the final round, Pearce would hang on to record his first Professional victory.

More than just a golf tournament, the Coca-Cola QLD PGA Championship has built a special relationship with the Toowoomba community thanks to the many activities run throughout the week.

Thanks to the recent success of the tournament, the PGA of Australia and City Golf Club agreed to keep the state championship in the Darling Downs region for the next two years.

“2018 will be the club’s 9th year of hosting the event since it moved here in 2009 and we are proud to call the City Golf Club the Home of the QLD PGA Championship,” said Ed Britnell, President of City Golf Club.

“We are continually improving our course to ensure it remains a championship quality facility and we look forward to welcoming the country’s best tour players once again to Toowoomba.

“This is a major sporting event for the region and we work hard to ensure the public continue to be exposed to the game of golf at the highest level through this tournament.”

The Coca-Cola QLD PGA Championship will be played from 15-18 February for AUD$125,000 and Official World Golf Ranking points.
