An ambitious advocate for women in business has stepped down from leading a Sunshine Coast organisation after three years in the role.
Roz White will confirm her resignation as Sunshine Coast Business Women’s Network president at the organisation’s upcoming 2021 Annual General Meeting.
The co-owner of White’s Grocers said she wanted to give someone else the opportunity to lead the group to “let new ideas flourish”.
Under her leadership the network has delivered a first of its kind accelerated MBA program in partnership with University of the Sunshine Coast for businesswomen looking to finalise their lived experience qualifications.
That’s when the contest really began.
Both girls parred the first extra hole – the par five first – then went to the par-three second, which they played three times, including once when Kath looked out of it, but chipped in for a par.
Fearing the match would never end, officials then sent the girls to the nearby par-four 16th , where both players hit long drives and excellent approach shots.
Yuuki chipped from the fringe of the green to within 2m of the hole, only to watch as Kate sank a marvellous 17m putt for a birdie and the win.
“That was incredible,” Kate said.
