James Whyte - Sussex Amateur Champion 2023
Congratulations once again to Nevill’s James Whyte who won the Sussex Amateur yesterday.
After reaching the knockout stages James won at the 1st extra hole in the last 16 and 7&6 in the quarter final.
That set up a semi final match with fellow Nevill member Jon Exon-Taylor which James won 2&1.
On to the final against Drew Sykes of Goodwood where James saved his best until last. After being 2 down with 5 to play he birdied the next 4 holes to
turn the match around and win 2&1!
Fantastic achievement James and our clubs first Sussex Amateur winner since Todd Adcock in 2007.
