FORMER touring professional Paul Donahoo has been appointed golf operations manager at Brookwater Golf and Country Club.
The 37-year-old started in his new role last month after spending seven years as assistant manager at Victoria Park Golf Club in Brisbane.
Donahoo is extremely familiar with Brookwater Golf and Country Club after spending a number of years at the Brookwater-based Queensland Academy of Sport.
During his playing days, Donahoo played the Australian and Asian circuit winning the Cairns Classic and the Pat O’Driscoll Real Estate/Tropical Auto Group Golf Classic at Capricorn Resort in Yeppoon.
Donahoo told Inside Golf he had developed a passion for business development.
“In my role, I want to re-establish Brookwater as the number one course in Queensland and within the top-15 in Australia for membership services, corporate days and tour groups.
Brookwater, which is located at Springfield 30 minutes from Brisbane’s CBD and 45 minutes from the Gold Coast, is a Greg Norman-designed layout.
It remains one of the Shark’s favourite courses in Australia.
A four-time winner of the Australian Golf Media Awards, including Best Photojournalism, Best Opinion, Best Column and Best Photographic Presentation, Inside Golf Group Editor Richard Fellner is the quintessential Golf Tragic, having played the game for over 50 years (but has never gotten any better!) He has played and reviewed courses all over the world, and has interviewed many of the great players of the game (including Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson and Greg Norman). Richard is a member of both the Australian Golf Media Association and the Golf Society of Australia, and has been a featured guest on many Australian "sports talk" radio shows and networks, including ABC Grandstand, SEN 1116, Melbourne Talk Radio 1377, 2GB and others.
