The Carlton & United Breweries Ocean Shores Country Club Pro-Am is the first Ladbrokes PGA Pro-Am Series event the Club has held 16 years.

Queensland Professional Tim Hart has fired a stunning 4-under par 68 around the difficult Ocean Shores Country Club Championship layout to claim victory by two shots from female Professional Jessica Cowie.

Professional Tim Hart got his round off to the perfect start when he scored a hole-in-one on the par3, 3^rd hole using a wedge from 143 metres.

Hart’s round included four birdies coming at the 1^st, 2^nd, 4^th and 13^th and just two bogeys on the 10^th and 16^th holes threatened to derail his round.

“My ball striking was really consistent today,” Hart said.

“The hole-in-one on the 3^rd hole gave me a lot of confidence early on in my round and I was able to continue that form."

Professional  Jessica Cowie and former Ocean Shores Country Club member used her  local knowledge to shoot the low round of the morning field scoring a 2-under par 70 and to move into outright second place.

“I  thought it would be nice to combine a trip back home to visit family while also playing a few events at the same time," said Cowie.

The next stop on the Ladbrokes PGA Pro-Am Series is the Tweed Coast Nissan and Tweed Coast Mazda Coolangatta & Tweed Heads Golf Club Pro-Am to  be played Friday 13 October at the Coolangatta & Tweed Heads Golf Club.
