Kingaroy always seems to turn something on for the gallery; last weekend (August 17), it was the Men’s “B” Grade Singles Championships.<\/p>\n

The final was a nail-biter \u2013 Bob Robinson versus Malcolm Macleod.<\/p>\n

Both deserved their spot in the final \u2013 both scoring good wins in the quarter-final and semis<\/p>\n

Bob downed Barry O\u2019Brien 26-16 and Peter Neilsen 25-20.<\/p>\n

Malcolm won his quarter-final against Alan Rogerson 25-22 and cruised away in his semi against Merv Anderson 26-6<\/p>\n

The final was a keenly fought contest. The winner was decided by the first player to score 25.<\/p>\n

It was 5 all after 4 ends but then Robinson skipped away leading 17-7 after 10 ends. Macleod fought back to level 18 all at 16 ends.<\/p>\n

The ends continued to be tight with the lead changing hands until it was 22 all after 22 ends.<\/p>\n

Robinson took the next mat with a single. He could see a light at the end of the tunnel and in the next game, with some beautiful bowling, moved the jack a short distance to give himself three and take the title 26 to 23.<\/p>\n
