Wayne
Davies continued his good run from last week where he won the International
Terremolinos open, amongst players he beat where Justin Broton (Gib)
and John Ferrell (UK).
Steve Robertson having reached the semi-finals over at Torremolinos
also wanted to prove it was by no means luck. He went one better
this time by reaching the Gibraltar Open final where he beat local
talent Dylan Duo who put up a great fight to try and stop him.
Louise Simmonds simply put was ecstatic about her win against the
toughest of opponents, Jan Robbins also from the UK.
Between
the British Darts Organisation (Torremolinos Open) and the Kronenbourg
Gibraltar Open 2006 the week has gone rather well for the Gibraltar
representation in both events.
Both
Justin Broton & Dylan Duo got to the stage semi-finals. Justin
in the Torremolinos Open and Dylan in the Gib Open.
Another
Gibraltar player, George Federico, despite having the toughest of
draws reached the quarterfinals and lost to the eventual winner
Wayne Davies from Wales.
Both
tournaments are similar as they are only a week apart from each
other and this means that players attending the Torremolinos Open
are brought over by coach into Gibraltar to play in the Gibraltar
Open.
There
is a mix of international players, professionals, county and super
league players from the United Kingdom and from around the world.
Including a very healthy participation from Spanish players and
ex pats that now reside and play in Spain. Both tournaments also
boasted record numbers in attendance this year.
At
the Gib Open we had a singles men and ladies tournament with prize
funds reaching €3500 Euros and a place for both winners to
represent as Gibraltar Champions in the Winmau Darts World Championships
this year.
