Kerrie Anne Kennerley enjoys her golf holiday on Hamilton Island

What’s your handicap?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: My handicap is 17.

What do you love about playing a round of golf at hamilton island golf club? Doesn’t the view distract you?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: Golf at Hamilton Island has the world’s best ingredients, some of the most magnificent views unmatched; 360-degrees on a few holes. It has the challenge of a course like no other and will test the very best players. And it all starts with a beautiful but all too short boat ride over blue water.

If you had to pick a dream foursome to play at hamilton island golf club, who would be in it - including yourself of course.
Kerri-anne Kennerley: I would love to play with comedians of the world as in any golf game you need humour as well as some skill. Robin Williams, Billy Connolly, Billy Crystal.

How did you get into golf?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: I started golf several years ago as my sister started to play with her husband and it became fun family weekend trips away.

The 19th hole… you can share, what’s your favourite drink?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: Getting back to the Clubhouse is a great experience to sit and sip a cold glass of white wine and soak in the view. Again.

Which golf clubs do you use? Favourite iron?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: I use a lot of woods and hybrids. I use Callaway and have the X Hot series but I do love my Odyssey Versa putter.

Karrie webb, what do you think about what she has done for female golfing?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: Karrie Webb is the best female golfer and if you analyse - has won as much as Tiger (Woods) but without the same recognition. But brilliant all the same.

Supermodel kate upton and politician condoleezza rice are keen golfers, who is your golf role model?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: I have no real golf role model... I enjoy the game and just love to play - twice a week if I can.

Favourite course anywhere else in the world is…
Kerri-anne Kennerley: The Plantation Course on Maui is also special. It has views and seems to have been carved from the side of a mountain.

And finally, any tips for tackling hamilton island golf club?
Kerri-anne Kennerley: The only tip for Hamilton Island is - take plenty of balls and pick a day when the wind is kind.
