The third and final round of the Mark Edwards Thursday Championship was played today at Leongatha in near perfect golfing conditions. This stableford event which has been played over last 3 Thursdays, is a best 2 rounds of 3 competition.

With the leader after 2 rounds, Dylan Clark unable to play today due to work commitments, the event was wide open. Trevor Steer, just 1 behind Dylan after 2 rounds needed only to better his second round 33 points, while Peter Waters needed 33 points to draw level with him.
