An extra event was played in October 1952 called the Adelaide Advertiser Special Tournament with prize money of £1,000. It was played at Kooyonga Golf Club with a first prize of £350. The tournament was organised because of the visit of a team of four American golfers; Jimmy Demaret, Lloyd Mangrum, Ed Oliver and Jim Turnesa. Mangrum won with a 36-hole score of 137, four strokes ahead of Oliver.[1]
