Norfolk champions in action at Woodhall Spa

Sully Goddard continued his excellent run of form with a fine top-five finish at England Golf’s County Champion of Champions competition at Woodhall Spa Golf Club in Lincolnshire.

The England Under-18 international played his way into the thick of the battle for the Men’s title.

Goddard, a member at Thetford Golf Club, posted an opening one-over-par round of 74 – and then produced a storming second-round charge.

He made two birdies on the front nine before dropping a shot at the 11th. But he responded superbly, finding an eagle and two more birdies to move within touching distance of the leaders.

A slip-up at the 17th halted his bold bid for glory. However, he still signed for a four-under-par tally of 69 and finished just three strokes back from top spot – an excellent effort in high-class company.

Carl Green (Great Yarmouth & Caister) delivered a solid showing in the Seniors tournament. He compiled back-to-back 77s to sit in tied-11th place on eight-over-par.

Dereham golfer Liam Caffyn also came away with his head held high from the Boys competition. He finished in 19th place, having shot 78 and 79 for an 11-over par total.

Congratulations to all three of our champions competing for Norfolk at this prestigious event.
