The tenth William Buckley Classic was held over the weekend of Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th of October 2015. The venue was the superb 36-hole 13th Beach Golf Links playing The Beach Course on Saturday and The Creek Course on Sunday. Both golf courses are just a spear chuck away from one of Buckley's regular homes on the banks of Bream Creek near Barwon Heads.
The accommodation was on-course at the luxurious Barwon Heads Resort and the format was 2-ball ambrose stableford over 36 challenging holes of golf. Below we see the 2015 William Buckley Classic champions, Steven Humphries & Adam McCaw, posing down with The Murrangurk Perpetual Trophy after the presentation ceremony.

The tournament was contested in great spirit and was once again an awesome test of golf on some super courses. On the first day, Adam McCaw and Steven Humphries tore the Beach Course to pieces with a brilliant display of ball-striking and great scoring to jump out to a huge lead. On the second day the swoopers came with 9 of the 12 teams scoring under par. The leaders, however, were not one of them and they held on grimly over the closing holes to post 35 and scramble over the line for a two-shot victory. The final placings were:
