The award winning course!

The highly regarded Murray Downs Golf & Country Club is the #1 golf course on the Murray River. Ideal for your next group or individual golfing holiday, the championship 18 hole golf course at Murray Downs is the current 2024 host of the NSW OPEN and a previous winner of Victorian PGA course of the year… And of course, we’re currently ranked in the Top 100 Australian Courses.

The Par 72 course is a striking contrast to the Mallee plains that surround it, experience the pleasure of playing away from the city crowds with river gums in the background.The undulating greens complemented by well-manicured fairways, thoughtful tee positions and pin placements. The course has some great signature holes including the 5th with a long water carry over to the green. It’s a challenging task for those that choose to risk it and hit straight for the hole.

The course does provide some relief on other holes including the other Par 3 11th and 15th. Murray Downs Golf & Country Club is playable to all handicaps, rewarding the great shots and penalising the ones we wish we’d never hit. We hope that you consider Murray Downs on your next golfing holiday and look forward to seeing you soon!

Our Golf Pro

I began my golfing career at age 5 thanks to my parents who are both avid golfers. I have been fortunate to have their support throughout my career. That was the beginning of what has become a lifelong journey to share my passion for the game with people from all walks of life. Whether it be through playing, serving or coaching golfers of all skill levels I look forward to the challenge that is helping everyone enjoy themselves just that little bit more with each visit. Returning to Murray Downs is a homecoming of sorts as it remains the only place where I have been fortunate enough to win a Club Championship.

Completing my PGA Traineeship in 2009 under the guidance of Michael MacGregor at Tocumwal Golf Club I found my feet in the industry with an Assistant Professional role at Murrumbidgee Country Club in Canberra. This was followed by a Head Professional appointment at Cowra Golf Club and a stint as Head Professional at Gailes Golf Club in Brisbane. In 2018 I was appointed as the Head Professional at Royal Hobart Golf Club before coming to Murray Downs Golf & Country Club in late 2023. I am the first 4-time winner of the Australian PGA Professionals Championship with wins in 2014, 2015, 2017 and 2023.

I have been lucky throughout my career to have been given the opportunity to learn from some very knowledgeable and experienced experts within the Australian golfing industry which has helped immensely in my development both in coaching as well as growing the game through other avenues. All of them have stressed the importance of helping nurture the future of the game through many different means and programs.

My coaching philosophy involves ensuring that each and every golfer has a strong understanding of basic fundamentals and that your best golf is played when you keep it simple. A clear mind will allow you to perform to the best of your ability whatever the circumstance. I am greatly looking forward to looking after the members and guests of the Murray Downs Golf & Country Club.
