The Lord Fermoy Cup for the Prichard Open Level Advanced Weekend at Hunstanton CC was won by Neil Adams with a +9TP win over Mark Avery in the "final" game.

The Tournament is played on five Lawns at Hunstanton in reasonable weather, if not a bit cold and windy, as a managed swizz.

24 players ranging from -2.5 to 8 played 84 games with quicker players getting more games than those who went to time. Of the quicker players 3 names emerged as likely winners. On Sunday evening Mark Avery after 7 straight wins finally lost his 8th game to Ian Lines who had only lost to Neil Adams. Neil remained undefeated until Monday Morning with his first loss, -14 to Phillip Eardley putting him level with Ian in equal 2nd place on games played. Neil completed a somewhat adventurous TP against Mark in the last round to put Mark out of contention, with 2 losses, and take the Cup from Ian on who beat whom.

Our thanks to Hunstanton to the quality of the hoops, lawns and hospitality.
