Queensland’s Wesley Hinton wins men's title, while Jazy Roberts claims the women’s title
Queensland’s Wesley Hinton capped a dominant week at The Dunes Medal with a wire-to-wire victory, closing at 5-under 283 to win by two shots at The Dunes Golf Club on the Mornington Peninsula. Hinton opened with superb rounds of 68–68, built a six-shot lead through 54 holes, and held steady with 73–74 over the final two rounds to keep Heatherton’s Abel Eduard at bay. Eduard (73–72–70–70) finished runner-up at 3-under, while defending champion Max Moring missed the cut by a single stroke after rounds of 76–76.
The win continues a stellar season for Hinton, who has now collected four titles—NextGen Amateur Tour Noosa Springs, Queensland Amateur Classic, the Gary Player Classic, and The Dunes Medal—alongside three other top-10s in just 12 starts. The men’s field featured 154 top amateurs, with 47 progressing to the weekend.
Melbourne’s Jazy Roberts claimed the women’s title with a composed 1-under 291, posting rounds of 72–71–74–74 to win by five shots. Perth’s Amie Phobubpa finished second at 4-over after rounds of 76–73–71–76. Thirty-one players competed in the women’s field.
The Dunes Medal has long been a proving ground for elite talent, with past champions including Jason Day (2005), Minjee Lee (2013) and Hannah Green (2014)—all of three of them are now major winners.
The Dunes Medal is an Open Amateur event played over 72 Holes on The Dunes Golf Links championship course. Rounds 1 and 2 are played on Tuesday and Wednesday followed by a cut with the Top 40 players plus ties playing the final two rounds on Thursday...
