Clark, Carter prevail at the inaugural night golf event
Jason Clark and Gwyneth Carter were the winners of the men’s and women’s divisions, respectively, on Friday night as Nexgen Golf ran off a successful staging of its inaugural Night Championship.
Despite overcast conditions, golf enthusiasts and novices were undeterred and gathered at the Scout Association Ground on Woolford Avenue for the event.
One of the highlights of the evening was the Glow Ball Competition, where participants competed for prizes by showcasing their accuracy and finesse under the dark night sky.
Winning the men’s category prize provided by Guyana Beverages Inc. was Jason Clark, while Gwyneth Carter took top honours in the women’s category and copped a prize from Sterling Products Ltd.
