Tournament web site: Results on WCF web site: Photos of Duncan Dixon winning the plate. VideosA short video from PGA - starts with Chris Clarke v Johnny Osborn - Lawn 1. Chris is ball in hand on the NB going for #2 - partner for 4-back waiting as his pioneer at #3. Chris would go on to finish his triple. It then segues to Robert Fletcher on Lawn 2 for #3 - partner for 3-back (taking off to #3 from near #4). While Robert did get the 3-back peel he didn't finish the quad but did win the game (I don't recall who he was playing). Hoops remained firm throughout the day causing many hampers. Posted by Bob Kroeger. This video clip is of the peg-out phase of Trevor Herin's triple against Robert Fulford. For context, Robert set the sextuple leave having POP'd Trevor through #1, Trevor hit the Tea Lady going to 4-b with a spread, Robert plays his back ball and misses from the end of A baulk, Trevor shoots through #1 forgetting he was POP'd, Robert misses a 12 - 14 yarder going to the WB, Trevor turns down the two yarder at partner and hits Robert with the seven yarder and embarks on his triple. His mother Paula (on Mother's Day) watched the whole game. Posted by Bob Kroeger. Super Hoop - The Movie. Posted by Bob Kroeger. A short video of the four lawns at PGA. Posted by Bob Kroeger. This video shows Malcolm Fletcher (U and K) in play on Lawn 2 at PGA on Monday. He's on a break going for #4. I can't recall who he was playing. Ultimately he made a leave where he stopped at 1-b with his partner for #4. Yellow was near the WB and #1 and red near 1-b. I was distracted after that and am not sure what happened.

This clip has Koji Moriyama from Japan in play on Lawn 8 at the NCC Tuesday afternoon. It begins with him approaching penult. Posted by Bob Kroeger. This has Robert Lowe from NZ in play doing a straight rover peel and combination peg-out to complete his triple on Lawn 3 at PGA Thursday. Apologies for my dreadful camera work as I was in quiet conversation during most of it hence the reason for no sound until the end. Posted by Bob Kroeger. Quarter-final Fletcher/Death (5 clips).
