What is the TBIS?

The TBIS is a golfing society in Sussex with a group of around 50 people. TBIS Events are every 6-8 weeks and there is an ongoing 10 event tournament where players participate in the hope of winning the Race to the Stone.

Darren Fuller secured his maiden win on the TBIS Tour with a composed and clinical 36-point round off a handicap of 17, etching his name into TBIS history as the 39th unique winner in 42 events.

The sun-drenched Ham Manor Golf Club, described by many as being in the best condition the society had ever seen it, played host to Event 2 of the 2025/26 season. The tree-lined fairways and lightning-fast greens kept scores modest, but Fuller rose above the challenge to become the third senior winner in the past five years and the second this season — following Steve Farrell’s opening event triumph at Petersfield.

Pushing Fuller to the wire were Mark Fowler and Matt Hammond, both posting solid 35-point rounds, narrowly missing the chance to force a three-way playoff for the tray.

On the par-3 challenges, nearest-the-pin prizes went to Steve Farrell, Adam Hunt, and Joe Perry, with only the 200-yard 8th green going untouched — a testament to the course’s tough layout on the day.

Adding to his memorable outing, Fuller also claimed victory in the team event alongside Lee Garnham and Rich Vaughan. Their 40-point combined total ranks as one of the highest ever recorded in that format on the TBIS tour.

The local venue ensured players were quickly back in the clubhouse to enjoy well-earned cold pint after a day of intense heat. An evening in town capped off another brilliant day for the group. 

The TBIS tour rolls on to Milford Golf Club on Friday August 1st, another debut venue for the society. With the bar set high and hopes of more fine weather, anticipation for Event 3 is already building.
