Brad Bourke has taken out the major sin­gles title with a superb performance against last year winner Ben Rooke. In the first third section the match was evenly poised with the scores level. Brad scored a couple of maximum shots and raced to a command­ing lead 17/7. Ben tried valiantly to bridge the margin but Brad consistently having bowls in the head, held on to win 25/10.
