With just two rounds remaining in the regular Premier League season, J Maher has surged to the top of the table for the first time this year, claiming a hard-fought 7–5 win over J Wilson.
Meanwhile, D Friend had a busy and successful day, playing three matches and coming away with three convincing victories. He notched up 7–2 wins against both N Mitchell and K Reason, and a 7–3 result over A McMinn. Friend also hit the only 180 of the afternoon, continuing his strong form, while J Wilson impressed with a smooth 171.
There will be no matches this coming week, but players and spectators alike can look forward to the inaugural Grand Prix social event on Sunday, August 10. The Grand Prix is the club’s only doubles competition of the year and promises to be a fun, fast-paced format.
For those interested in entering or learning more, details can be found on the club’s Facebook page.
Organisers would like to thank the generous sponsors who continue to support the competition: Mika Airlie, Whitsunday Tattooing, Master Butchers Whitsunday & MBW On the Barbie, Dyson Automotive, and ShirtFront Solutions.
As the season nears its conclusion, the competition remains fierce—and with top positions still up for grabs, the final rounds are set to be thrilling.
