Sam An and Harry Bateman both scorched around the Warkworth course in nine under par 63  today to win the Barfoot & Thompson Warkworth Ladies Pro am.
The format is unique in NZ in that the entire field of amateur players are female. There are three female amateurs in each group and most groups have two professionals. The  fifty NZPGA Professionals included three women (Jenna Gainford, Grace Senior and Liv Cheng)
San An fired  eight birdies and an eagle at  the par five eighth which was offset with a single bogey at the par three twelfth hole. Harry Bateman bogied the third and sixteenth holes  and holed his second for a rare albatross on the par five eigth as well as eight birdies. Brad Shilton finished outright third on 64 with Jared Pender on 65 followed by Dan Pearce and Wesley Jeon on 66
