Bad weather disrupts Q-school at Heron Banks

VAALPARK – Although the ground staff at Heron Banks Golf Course did an amazing job preparing for the Sunshine Tour’s Q-school event, which is currently underway, inclement weather has been unpredictable.

The event started yesterday, and the final round will be played on Friday or Saturday, depending on the weather.
