Walters and Presnell led the morning session as the first to record the 6-under 67 final score, with Hall and John following in the afternoon field to join the list of winners.
A further six players including Michael Choi, Christopher Wood, Scott Laycock, PGA Trainee Frazer Droop and recent top finishers Ruben Lal and Andrew Martin completed the round tied for fifth place on 5-under 68.
After some time away from the game former Victorian PGA Championship winner Alistair Presnell said it was great to be back in action.
“I can’t believe it took me three starts to win again,” he joked.
Despite experiencing a few showers during play, Walters was quick to praise the recent course upgrades at Keysborough Golf Club.
“The course was amazing, the bunker renovations have taken the course to another level,” he said.
“We are blessed to have had the opportunity to play here.”
The next event on the Ladbrokes Pro-Am Series will take on the Super 6 format at the RACV Healesville Country Club for the RACV Healesville Super 6 from 19-20 January 2019.

The pair overcame a strong field of ISPS HANDA PGA Tour of Australasia winners including 2015 Australian PGA Champion Nathan Holman, 2018 REBEL Sport Masters Champion Matthew Millar and 2016 Victorian PGA Champion Ashley Hall.
They also endured sweltering conditions as the mercury reached close to 40 degrees towards the end of the day’s play.
Both Choi and Ford recorded rounds of 4-under 69, Choi’s run of four consecutive birdies through the middle of his round enough to see him share top honours.
“It was nothing too exciting from me today, but it was probably the four birdies in the middle of the round that set up the win,” said Choi.
“To be honest, I didn’t think that was even going to be close, normally you have to shoot 4-under just to get paid.”
Ford will be disappointed with his round after a four-putt on his first hole and finishing his round with back-to-back bogeys.
“I got off to a horrible start with a four putt on my first hole for bogey,” said Ford.
“I let it slip a little coming in, finishing bogey, bogey, but I’m really happy to hold on for the win.”
