The Great Golf Australia Trivia Quiz #5

The person with the most number of correct answers will win one dozen Mizuno RB Tour golf balls. The RB Tour is a very soft compression premium ball that offers lower driver spin, and high greenside spin. The four-piece ball also boasts a new Cone Dimple, which is designed to keep fast-flowing air close to the ball’s surface longer – reducing drag and strengthening trajectory.

In the event of a tie, the winner will be randomly drawn.

Entries close 11.59pm on May 22. The winner and the correct answers will be published in the July 2019 issue of Golf Australia magazine.
