Ben Eddy is superintendent of Whaleback Golf Course. Whaleback is currently undergoing a significant investment from the local council on the back of an enormous amount of golf being played on the course!
Ben has had quite the journey in his career. From beginning as an apprentice at a regional golf course to working at one of Australia's finest courses, to his 2nd appointment as a superintendent at Whaleback. Ben is an incredibly passionate and energetic superintendent who strives to bring out the best on whatever golf course he helps maintain.
Ben also gives us an insight into the course at Whaleback including some unique WWII heritage buildings that are located on the site.
This chat is full of passion and we also dive deep into how and why Perth's public golf offering are so incredibly strong and well supported by the public. You will enjoy this one!
You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!
