Golf: Heysham come out on top in annual Clayton Trophy
The event between Heysham, Lancaster and Morecambe attracted a good crowd and they were rewarded with some good golf, particularly from the reigning champions who led following the morning’s foursomes and then increased that lead in the afternoon’s singles.
Young John Wilding was Heysham’s star after lunch carding a net 70, matched by Morecambe’s Chris Carney.
