It’s only taken 63 years, but Manawatū-Whanganui are champions in women’s interprovincial golf once again.
Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club hosted the event, the same venue the ladies team last won in 1960.
Manawatū-Whanganui beat North Harbour 3-2 in a close final at Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club on Saturday after extra holes in Friday’s semi-final at Waikanae Golf Club.
It’s the third time Manawatū-Whanganui has won the trophy following victories in 1957, 1960, and now in 2023.
Captain and No 1 Tara Raj said the win had been a long time coming.
“We’ve come pretty close over the last three or four years, so we’re all really excited. It’s been a really long wait and all the girls deserve it. We’ve worked really hard for this.”
