Whilst the world’s best surfers were tackling the nearby Surfers Point break for the World Surf League’s Margaret River Pro, some of Australia’s best professionals tackled the Dunsborough Lakes layout in the fourth edition of the pro-am.
Players faced a strong breeze and cool conditions but scoring was still hot; Rory Bourke firing seven birdies and two bogies in tough conditions for a round of 5-under 67.
“I’m putting really nicely and when you’re doing that it takes the pressure off the rest of the game,” said Bourke.
“The course was fantastic and Len Thomas (PGA Life Member) and his team as always put on another amazing event.”
Sitting just one shot behind Bourke in second place was Andrew Schonewille with a round of 4-under 68.
Third place outright went to South Australian Antonio Murdaca at 3-under 69, followed by Daniel Hoeve, Michael Long, Brad Moules, Brody Martin and Brady Watt all shooting 2-under 70 to be tied for fourth.
Players now head a little further North to the Nexus Risk Services Southwest Open hosted by Bunbury Golf Club.
Heavy showers and strong winds battered Dunsborough Lakes Golf Course prior to hitting off which made the course a great test for the field of 33 professionals in the Urban Quarter Dunsborough Pro-Am.

Under the tough conditions, 13 players shot even-par or better Cottesloe Open winner Michael Choi posted a solid round of 4-under 68 to win the title by two shots.
“The course was in great condition and held up really well with the weather that came through prior to playing. I love coming to WA and it’s great to win again, hopefully I can build on these and take some great form into the upcoming Asian Tour events,” said Choi.
Capel Pro-Am winner Braden Becker and Brody Martin continued their great form with rounds of 2-under and 1-under respectively.
Becker (104 pts) continues to lead the CCA Swing Order of Merit from Brody Martin (87 pts) with Jarryd Felton third (74 pts).
Players now move on to Bunbury for the Southwest Open starting Saturday.
