Traralgon Pro-Am

An Historical Perspective.

The Traralgon Pro Am, a premier event on the Gippsland golf calendar conducted its first tournament in 1991. Now a 2 day Order of Merit event, with a purse of $30 000, the Traralgon Pro Am invites professional and amateur golfers the opportunity to play alongside each other.

Working with the Victorian PGA the Traralgon Pro Am Committee co-ordinates fields for 65 professionals, sponsors and their guests, and club amateurs. In recent years, the committee has combined the Pro Am with the Traralgon Classic, an event for elite amateurs. The club now promotes as the Traralgon Pro Am Classic.

The event attracts significant sponsorship, mainly from local businesses, just as committed to supporting local golf, as they are to promoting their own business. Naming Rights sponsors for two decades has been Latrobe City and WIN Network.

Many professionals at the Pro Am Classic have played on the US, Asian and European tours. TGC club professional Darren Cole, himself a winner on the European Tour, won the Traralgon Pro Am four times between 1995 and 2001. Other multiple winners include Scott Laycock, David Brandson and Matt Millar.

The event is supported by a hundred or more volunteers at the golf club; on the course, in the club house and through the organising committee. Without such support the event would not happen.
