Yesterday saw the conclusion of the quarter-final stage of the Championship knockout, and the opening rounds of the Bowl and Plate KO events.
There were certainly some exciting matches. Blake and Brian finished in the dark on the 13th hoop and Tom and Khaled also finished their 5th game on the 13th hoop. If you haven’t had the chance yet, make sure you watch the last three hoops Khaled made. Talk about clutch.
In the earlier matches, both Robert and Euan played brilliantly and dominated their opponents.
