Golfers will take aim at a $20,000 hole-in-one at a new event on the Sunshine Coast.
The cash will be on offer at the inaugural Noosa Hills Par 3 Shootout, at Noosaville on Sunday, February 23.
The 18-hole stableford competition will also include nearest-to-the-pin prizes on every hole, placegetter prizes for scratch and handicap divisions, and $2500 for a course record.
Course CEO Neil Brennan said the event could attract players from interstate.
“The Noosa Hills Par 3 Golf Course is a hidden gem and we are excited to invite players from all over Australia to compete in the shootout,” he said.
“Whether you’re a seasoned pro, aspiring amateur or someone who just loves the game, it’s an event guaranteed to be enjoyed by all.
“And of course the excitement of winning $20K, if you manage to ace the ninth, is the icing on the cake.
“We can’t to see if someone takes it home: we really hope to see if go off.”
The cash prize will be on offer at the ninth hole, on the north course.
