Brendan Wilson Wins First State Singles
After finishing an agonisingly close second (24-25) in last year’s final, Brendan Wilson has gone one better this year, claiming the QLD State Men’s Singles Title 25-20 over Luke Turner.
Wilson jumped out of the blocks to lead 6-0 and holding a four until Turner converted for two shots with his last. Turner then worked his way into the game to trail 11-9, before a purple patch from Wilson extended his lead to 20-9. Down 22-14, Turner hit his straps including saving game a couple of times to trail by three shots 23-20. Wilson was patient and steadied to pick up the two shots he needed to win his maiden State Singles Title. A pleasing win for Wilson after coming so close in last year’s final to Kurt Brown. Wilson credited Turner for his game in the final and was emotional in thanking his family for their ongoing support.
In the Bronze Medal Match, Adam Liddell defeated Gary Pearson 25-16. Pearson led 9-6 early until Liddell finished of the stronger of the two to claim third.
