2012 John Deere Golf Championship


The weather was absolutely perfect for the 32 teams that competed in the 2012 John Deere Golf Championships held at the picturesque McLeod Country Golf Club on Monday 18th June 2012. 
Run in conjunction with Chesterfield Australia and the Golf Management  Australia Queensland Divisionthis event fosters lasting relationships between manufacturers, dealers, golf club maintenance and managerial staff and provides a fun day.
The entry to the event consisted of the Course Superintendent, General Manager and a member of the Committee.
The event was run under the three person elimination scramble format with the first and second place getters having the opportunity to take on the rest of Australia and the best of New Zealand in the Trans-Tasman final to be held at the Clearwater Resort on New Zealand’s South Island.
Congratulations to Carbrook Golf Club in taking out 1st place consisting of Scott Wagstaff (General Manager), Brett Thomson (Course Superintendent) and Peter Amemaat (President) with a net 62. Second place getters were Ipswich Golf Club with Brett Holdway (General Manager), Chris Fletcher (Golf Course Manager) and Adam Gemmell (Golf Management Committee) with a net 63 1/3.
On behalf of GMAQ I would like to express thanks to Chesterfield Australia for sponsoring this great event and to Michael Richards (General Manager) and his staff of McLeod Country Golf Club for hosting a fabulous day. The condition of the course and food was fantastic I trust everyone had an exceptional experience and enjoyed the hospitality and the company of your fellow managers.
