Toby McDonald in Series 78.
Toby McDonald was a contestant in Series 78. He is also an Apterite. He has now qualified to return in June 2018 for the series finals.
Making his debut on 26 April 2018, he prevailed over three-time winner and former professional golfer Jason Palmer in an extremely close encounter, snatching the game on a crucial conundrum with both players already over 100 points.
