Alex Marshall - a really great lawn bowler. Err, as you were...

Dan Cox is down to play the Tour event at Hull.

Which is a bit of a surprise.

Match practice ? Wants a cheque ? A connection to Hull ?

Peter Ashley is the second seed (WR 1550) so there's not much depth in numbers here.

(1) Dan Cox def. (3) Clay Crawford 6-2 6-1

(4) David Porter def. (2) Peter Ashley 6-2 6-3


Dan v David P in the final

A huge entry at Lougborough this week - think it must be a tier one Tour event (never understand why it's not in the heading) - full entry pre-qualies, as well as qualies and MD.

Semis:


Dan Cox v Nicholas Nugent

Neil Pauffley v Oliver Hudson


Glad to see Neil playing again - hope the injury is truly healed. And he played Bloomers in the quarters - good to see Richard still plying his craft . . .

Many thanks, The O. - I guess there must be a leaderboard somewhere then ?


All as expected:

Semis:

Dan Cox def. Nicholas Nugent 6-1 6-0

Neil Pauffley def. Oliver Hudson 7-6(4) 6-3


Final:

Dan v Neil

How many points do you get for winning?

I'm guessing Bloomers has won it and Neil will consolidate runners up position.

The girls is a little closer between Mollie and Beth
