Victorian pair Rory Bourke and Geoff Drakeford finished with rounds of 72 (E) and 68 (-4) to win the Australian Men’s Foursomes Championship at Riversdale Golf Club in Melbourne.
In fine conditions, the pair made their move in the afternoon to win by three shots from Aaron Wilkin (QLD) and Jarrod Freeman (NSW) and NSW pair Matt Stieger and Brett Drewitt at 1 under par in second place.

Daniel Nisbet (Qld) and Anthony Houston (Vic) finished in fifth place at 3-over par.
