Tasmanian tour pro Mat Goggin was 13 years old in the late 1980s, enjoying his first year of playing golf, when his grandfather insisted he head to 7 Mile Beach in Hobart, Tasmania, to hit balls off the sand.
Australian golf-tour operator Air Adventure Golf has secured its place as a leader in golf tourism after winning gold for Best Tour & Transport Operator at the prestigious 2024 Tasmanian Tourism Awards.
Mathew Goggin, Tasmania’s best-known touring pro, has a new passion project: drawing more golfers to his hometown of Hobart courtesy of two new world-class courses.
With the Seven Mile Beach course showing great progress and due to commence operations in late 2023, work on the Five Mile Beach course, subject to approvals, is now set to follow shortly after.
