CELEBRITIES VS JOURNALISTS (Part 2 of 4)

Although the tone of the Hackers Cup visit was jovial, the celebrities and journalists competing for the inaugural Hacker's Cup  took the contest very seriously.  No player wanted to lose -- and it showed.

For the first two days of competition visiting and local journalists took on a collection of celebrities from the U.K. which included  legendary athletes like five-time Olympic gold medalist Sir Steve Redgrave, footbal legend Gary McAllister and Australian rugby player Michael Lynagh.

Sir Steve was captain of the celebrity team and famed sports writer Peter Corrigan led the journalists.

The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the BBQ on the 10th tee as players made the turn in a fierce two-man match play competition at the Port Royal Golf Course - home of the 2012 PGA Grand Slam of Golf.
