It was the DPM’s first time to swing a golf club to officially open the range after the second day of the PNG Senior Open tournament.
After getting a few pointers from one of the Australian professionals, Rosso opened the driving range with a hit, followed by Lae Golf Club president, Phil Hommelhoff.
The opening paved the way for four of the pro golfers to compete for the K5,000 ‘longest straightest drive’.
Hommelhoff said the range has become a reality after being proposed three years ago.
