David from Oxted, Surrey also showed CPR to 30,000 people – his goal after a golf buddy died of a heart attack.

David’s mission to learn CPR began when his golf friend Sean Moor, 42, died of a heart attack while playing about seven years ago.

He was passionate about teaching life-saving skills and used CPR for 17 minutes while waiting for a defibrillator when a young man collapsed three years ago.

David, married to Sally 58, a reflexologist, found a lump behind his ear last November – which turned out to be benign – and it inspired him to come up with the golf challenge.

David from Oxted, Surrey said, “It’s been such a trip.

“I am so happy that I have met nice and generous people and had some life changing experiences with them.

“We’re lucky to have people like that in the UK.

“I lost 942 golf balls but showed CPR to over 30,000 people.”
