On Sunday 25 May Phillip Island’s Isaac Batty won the 2025 South Gippsland Men’s Singles Championships in a brilliant day of golf.
With three birdies and an eagle in his first five holes, Batty (+3) was never headed, capturing two more birdies on the back nine to win the championship by two shots from PIGC’s Scott Fullarton (72 gross). Fullarton grabbed the nett title with his 69.
B-grade gross and nett was won by Korumburra GC’s Roy Fleming (with a gross score of 77, and nett score of 69) to win his first district title, followed closely by PIGC’s Brad Granger (gross 82).
In completing the strong showing from Phillip Island golfers, youngster Aaron Saric (18) won the C-grade men’s stableford with a solid 38pts from Brenton O’Brien (16) on 37pts and brother Lucas Saric (12) who came in with 36pts.
Junior Championship.
This event is held in conjunction with the men’s event.
Korumburra’s Billie Wrigley (3) won the junior championship with 78 gross, whilst Lucas Saric won the nett division (36pts).
