In the minor singles Greg C played newcomer Corey R. The more experienced Greg took an early lead having a 10 shot advantage 16/6. Corey recovered his previous form and slowly reduced the gap, bringing the game to be evenly poised and either players for the taking. Both players went end to end, with Corey taking the leading 23/19. In the last three ends Greg scored a 1,2, and a 3 to take the win 25/23. It was a great game over 32 ends on a cool Friday evening. Greg now plays his pairs partner, Marc S in the final on Sunday at 1pm.
Ben R defeated Marc S in the major semi final on Tuesday night. In the early section of the game scores were fairly even. Marc finally fell to Ben’s consistency of draw bowling to go down 25/14. Ben now goes into the final on Sunday at 1pm in a back to back performance against Brad Bourke in his first Major singles final. This game will be a must see as both bowlers are very similar in their performance and are both in good form.
