It was another Victoria double act in the Wellington Open Pairs at Wainuiomata, with title wins in both the mens and womens competitions, both over last month’s Open Triples winners. Lisa White (2nd Wellington title) and Kay Carr (sixth title) beat Johnsonville’s Kaaren Guildford and Luis Hare, and Rhys Hakkens (1st title) and Richard Corry (2nd Wellington, and a couple of others around the place) knocked over Stokes Valley’s Clint Carroll and Blake Signal. Incredibly this was Blake’s first loss in six centre final appearances.
Nina De Munnik and Helen King also featured on the final day going down to Johnsonville in the semifinals.
