HOW TO ENTER
To submit your quiz answers, visit the
WIN page on our website,
http://www.golfaustralia.com.au
The person with the most number
of correct answers will win a dozen of
Mizuno’s new-release RB Tour golf ball.
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-fl owing 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 August 21.
The winner and the correct answers
will be published in the October issue
of Golf Australia magazine.
The GREAT GOLF AUSTRALIA TRIVIA QUIZ #6
