The Golfie Bowls Fours Championship final on Sunday was a cracker of a game with Gerard Livingston, Tony Brown, Bian Smith and Peter ‘China’ Brien wining the title on the final bowl of the match.
They outdid Kyle Roberts, Don Roberts, Shane Carter and Scott Toomey in a thriller of a close game.
Leading by a shot with an end to play, Livingston and Co looked the goods when they were up by two with two bowls left to be played.
Kyle Roberts was next up to bowl and produced a beauty which knocked out Smith’s shot bowl to give his side a two shot advantage.
Livingston then delivered the killer bowl while also getting his revenge. (Kyle Roberts had defeated Livingston 31-21 on Friday to progress to the Singles Championship finals.)
Whacking at least six bowls (or it could have only been one), Livingston knocked out Kyle Roberts’ bowl to win the shot and take out the championship title.
It was a great win in a game that displayed wonderful sportsmanship.
Social bowls was played alongside the Fours championship game on Sunday with John Daly and Barry Bargwanna finishing as winners with a score of +8.
Later that afternoon Daniel Holt and Dean McLeod defeated Tony Brown and Bian Smith in a fairly dominant display winning their Pairs game 20-13.
Holt and McLeod led most of the way and it was apparent that Livingston and Brien must have been carried by their other two players in their Fours win earlier in the day.
Holt and McLeod will now go on to play David Knight and Aaron Finn in the Pairs Championships final.
