Dave and Stuart are the night kings at Tydd St Giles Club again after countback victory

Dave Abram and Stuart Van Dyke defended their title at Tydd St Giles Golf Club’s annual nine-hole night golf event.

A field of 40 players contested this year’s competition, with Abram and Van Dyke clinching top spot on countback after racking up 16 points.

Some solid golf from Matt and Ian Prudence saw them finish second, having also scored 16 points.

Also bagging prizes were Vince Day and Ben Beresford. Day was the nearest to the pin winner on the fourth hole, while Beresford went closest on the seventh (hole 16) – which was certainly no easy achievement in the dark.
