RESULTS CAIRNS TUESDAY 28 APRL 2026

 

A great field of 81 FNQVGA golfers (61 men and 20 ladies) almost got caught on a sticky wicket at the Cairns Golf Club this morning but the sun came out long enough for some great scores to be returned, especially in the ladies. Thanks to everyone involved in making the morning a great success. 

We had one new member today Andrew Jackson from Gordonvale Golf Club- welcome aboard.

 A rainbow is an optical phenomenon formed by the refraction, internal reflection, and dispersion of sunlight within airborne water droplets, such as rain or mist.A perfect example of this formed over the 5th Green this morning and sent some golfers looking for the elusive pot of gold. 

Thanks to our major sponsor for today Drummond Golf cairns.

Next week: Gordonvale Golf Club 8am start.
