Chisholm claimed back-to-back club championships at Wagga Country Club on Sunday, overcoming torrential conditions to claim a dominant six-shot victory.

Chisholm stretched his lead from two shots to five with an even-par round of 72 on Saturday, before holding off his rivals in Sunday's final round.

The defending champion described Sunday's final round as 'absolutely insane' as the lead group returned from a 45-minute break due to thunderstorms to rush the final eight holes in amid rain and strong winds.

For Chisholm, it made his second Country Club title even more memorable.

"I'm stoked. It was really good. At no point did we ever have good conditions. It was a battle the whole way for everyone," Chisholm said.

"Everyone had their good and bad stretches. In the end, my second and third rounds were really solid and that got me in a position to withstand the final day."

Chisholm's final round 79 saw him finish on 296 for the 72-hole event. Kurt Pideski (302), Charles Talbot (303) and James Elliott (305) filled out the top four.

Chisholm paid tribute to everyone at the club for getting the final round completed.

A number of members hit the greens to use makeshift squeegees to ensure the players could finish the round.

"It was crazy. Absolutely insane," he described.

"The last nine holes, I've never seen anything like that. It got to the point where it was hard to see where you were hitting it."

The 45-year-old revealed it was not the first time he had confronted wild conditions with a final-round lead.

"It was uncanny. I've had a five-shot lead at a tournament on the coast before going into the final day with unbelievably bad weather," he said.

"That day I ended up in a play-off so I was having flashbacks.

"So I was hoping I had learnt from that and I think I did. I played differently. This time I tried to do what I would normally do and not change too many things."

The conditions made Chisholm's win even more satisfying.

"It was a good challenge. I felt that I managed myself really well and that's the key," he said.

"I put a lot of work in over the last couple of months to try and back last year up with a good one this year."

Neil Stainthorp took out B grade, while 13-year-old Henry Molloy won the C grade title.
