At the end of today’s play we will know who will contest the finals of the Open, Women’s and Senior Championships. Yesterday’s action saw a number of upset results, with the hot favourites in the Open, team Lavazza, being eliminated in the round of 32. The same fate befell the reigning Bermuda Bowl Champions, Meltzer, and the mighty Polish team Jassem. In the Round of 16 Welland lost a hard fought encounter against Chagas. The match between Turkey 1 and Senior went into overtime , with the English team eventually emerging with a provisional victory pending a late appeal.

The Women’s event also saw one of the favourites fall when Smith lost to Gromova. We have to mention the brilliant performance of the Scottish Women’s team McGowan, who outscored their opponents 109-0 in the second half of the match.
