Why you need to play the Outback Queensland Masters in 2025

Pack your golf clubs, an Akubra and your sense of adventure, the Outback Queensland Masters (OQM) is a golf tournament of a different kind and 2025 is your last chance to be a part of it.

Held in six locations over six weekends in June and July, it’s a way to experience the best of Queensland’s Outback with a golf club in hand.

The Million-Dollar Hole-In-One

Need we say more?

Karumba’s scenic course is the grounds of the 2025 Million-Dollar Hole-In-One finale 25 – 27 July!

To qualify for this tee-off, play in two of the lead-up locations taking your pick from Mitchell, Augathella, Blackall, Alpha or Richmond, the choice is yours. This means you’ll get plenty of practice. Check out the 2025 schedule here.

Our Million Dollar Pass or All Inclusive Pass will have you covered to make sure you qualify.

In 2021, one lucky golfer from Canberra hit a $10,0000 hole-in-one at the Quilpie Golf Course! Will 2025 be the year one lucky golfer claims the Million Dollar bounty?

The Challenge

As Australia’s most remote golf series, prepare your swing for some of the most unique golf courses in Australia.

This is a one-of-a-kind tournament that features a mix of traditional and sand greens, where your game is set to be tested. In Outback Queensland the greens aren’t always green, water hazards are extremely rare and don’t be surprised to find an abundance of kangaroos, emus or brolgas to tip your Akubra to while playing.

For taking on the challenge, we’ve got a swag full of prizes up for grabs along the journey from five $10,000 hole-in-one opportunities and the Million-Dollar Hole-In-One. For the serious and not-so-serious, there are also prizes for the highest 9-hole and 18-hole stableford scores at each round, overall series winners and major random prize draws.

That’s right, this outback golf adventure could see you road-tripping home with more than $1M in your back pocket.

The Scenery

If you haven’t visited Queensland’s great big backyard before (the Outback), buckle up and get ready to be blown away by the rugged beauty, endless horizons and rich orange soils.

With OQM taking place over six outback locations and stretching over 1,900 kilometres in 2025, there’s really no better way to see Queensland’s outback.

Games take place over six back-to-back weekends, so that leaves plenty of time in your schedule to experience each of the host towns and make pit stops along the way.

The Outback Experience

The Outback Queensland Masters is much more than just a golf tournament, you don’t even need to play to join in.

After the first day of play wraps up, the fun continues into the evening under the stars of the outback sky.

When the sun dips behind the seemingly endless horizon, gather around the roaring campfire with your new golfing mates, dine under the stars with locally made meals and watch some of Australia’s entertainment shine.

The best bit? It’s all included in your player and spectator passes.
