City of Cairns OpenThe City of Cairns Open is a professional and amateur golf tournament. It was briefly part of the PGA Tour of Australia's calendar. HistoryThe City of Cairns Open began in 1965.[1] It is held at Cairns Golf Club in Cairns, Australia.[1] In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the event was won by leading touring professionals, including Randall Vines and Vic Bennetts.[2] In 1975, it became an amateur event.[1] In 1983, The Sydney Morning Herald reported that Mark Nash won the event.[3] In recent years, the City of Cairns Open has evolved into a week-long event with four different tournaments. On Sunday, the first day of the event, the first tournament is held, a 4BBB Stableford for both men and women. The following two days a 36-hole women's tournament is held. On Wednesday, a men's team event is held. The event concludes with a 54-hole stroke play event for men.[1] Winners
