Tournament organiser Rob Sims reports on a great week for the Ladder. The tournament now has no less than 31 players! And with 6 games played in one evening last Tuesday, a new record was set for this very popular tournament.
Good Afternoon Everyone,
There were 6 Ladder games at club last Tuesday evening with very interesting results. John Pellegrini defeated Rose, who had been top of the Ladder since September, having defended the top rung against several would be usurpers. Lower down the Ladder there were several changes in position where lower placed challengers defeated higher placed players. Here are the results in full:-
- John Pellegrini 1 – 0 Rose Saunders
- Keven Lamb 1 – 0 Peter Eales
- Andy Mills 1 – 0 Philip Tarrant-Edwards
- Mike Davis 1 – 0 Daniel Phillips
- Lee Mundy 1 – 0 John Kooner
- Peter Przybycin 0.5 – 0.5 John Davis
6 Ladder games in one evening is the highest number so far this season so well done all for challenging and accepting challenges.
Best wishes
Rob Sims
