Back in third place, also with 117 points, were Phil Whitehead, Nev Barnes, Mick Evans and Dave Flippent.
Nearest the pin on the fourth hole was Michael Precious from Royal Norwich, while the closest the pin on hole eight was Tydd’s Tom Ainsley.
Two other Tydd members, Lee Smith and Russell Doy, were also nearest to the pin on the 11th and 16th holes respectively.
