Thanks to the Temora Golf Club and their many supporting sponsors they are once again delighted to invite you to their annual Temora Open weekend of golf, entertainment and comradery!
This year’s special guest is none other than Lauren Jackson.
Lauren Jackson is widely regarded as Australia's greatest basketballer and one of the most dominant players in the history of the sport. Born in Albury, New South Wales, she rose to international stardom with a unique blend of size, skill, and athleticism. A four-time Olympian and three-time WNBA MVP, Jackson led the Australian Opals to multiple Olympic medals and left an indelible mark on both the national and international basketball stage. Her illustrious career has inspired generations and cemented her legacy as a true icon of Australian sport.
NOTE: There is also a Facebook Page for golfers to follow information leading up to the event and expats Lauren and Kim Sandgren will be interviewing Lauren Jackson which will be fun as Lauren Sandgren played in her state team for a number of years.
