Top Marks as Mark Taylor won Game 4 following on from Mark Langford’s win in Game 3.
It was a rare “over par” victory, a combination of the extreme heat and a challenging track at Trentham Park, with two players sharing the winning total of 34 points, with Mark taking the top spot on the podium on countback from chairman Garry Elwell. It was a close game overall with just three points separating the top seven.
Mark Langford managed to cope admirably with the changeable conditions to win by a point from Mark Griffiths. Tony Beards completed the top three on countback, his second successive 3rd-placed finish.
Debutant Andy WIlkinson claimed victory at Bewdley Pines, although only on countback from Richard Stainer despite recording 42 points. Tony Beards came in 3rd four points behind the leaders with the chasing back a further point behind.
The new season opened up with a victory for Simon Perks who finished on 40 points, two clear of Paul Harris. Dennis Pilcher completed the podium a further point back.
