An astonishing eagle on the final hole gave Bundaberg Golf Club a narrow victory in the final of the Volkswagen Scramble, held last week at Twin Waters.
The team from Yowani Country Club was crowned the women’s champions in what was actually the 2019/20 final, postponed from late last year because of COVID-19.
A final round of nett 56.9 gave Bundaberg a 163.7 total across the tournament to steal the win from RACV Club Healesville by just 0.4 shots.
The par-3 17 hole saw only four birdies all day, yet Bundaberg found a way to secure a much- needed birdie thanks to Tim Russell, who drained a monster 50 foot putt to put himself within reach of personal back-to-back Volkswagen Scramble victories.
Ironically, he tied with his good mate and colleague Terry Price, who shares the coaching duties with Ecob and Ossie Moore at the Gold Coast academy.
Their academy caters for all levels of golfer, from beginners to touring pros, and has built up a strong clientele of Asian golfers.
Ecob, 50, who was the NSW amateur champion in 1994 and toured the world playing golf for more than a decade, only recently returned to the professional tour.
“I have had health issues with my heart, had numerous operations, and to come here and win
alongside an Australian legend like Terry Price is unbelievable,” he said.
