Kevin Dunne (2) delivered one of the standout performances of the day, earning the Gross Golf Award at the OMA Emirates Monthly Medal in Association with Unique Holding, held at Yas Links Abu Dhabi.
Dunne’s consistent play included three birdies—two on Par 5s (the 8th and 11th), one on the Par 3 4th, and another on the 14th. These were offset by three bogeys, resulting in an even-par round of 72.
Deidre Dudeney (13) also impressed, securing the Best Net prize with a strong net 70, which earned her the top Monthly Medal honour. Meanwhile, Aart Lehmkuhl (3) emerged as the Division 1 winner with a net 72.
