Another 47 tournaments from Friday 19 September have been added to the Q4QS database, and this was a particularly interesting batch.
There were two 115.62 averages, several strong Vault 19 performances, more junior results and two WADC events. But for my South and South West coverage, the standout story came at Evesham.
Vernall wins the Champion of Champions
Shaun Vernall won The Food To Go Champion of Champions Finals Night at Evesham Darts Competitions, beating Pete Hughes 5–3 in the final.
It was backed up by some excellent numbers. Vernall produced the best average of the tournament with 100.20, also recording 96.23 and 89.41 during the event.
Hughes was impressive too, reaching 95.77, while Joe Quiney produced a 90.18.
Vernall and Hughes both finished the tournament with six wins, with Quiney recording five.
For Vernall, though, this was the important statistic: another tournament title and one achieved against a strong Evesham field.
Two 115.62 averages
The biggest numbers anywhere in Friday’s data came from Kyle Ison and Roger Crook, who remarkably both recorded 115.62 averages.
Ison produced his at the Vault 19 event at Burghfield Community Sports Association in Reading. The title there went to Archie Self, who beat Paul Self 3–0 in the final and recorded averages of 96.97 and 93.94 on his way through.
Crook did turn his 115.62 into a tournament-winning night.
At Danny’s Bar in Banbury, he added averages of 97.14, 85.89, 83.50 and 82.44 and finished with eight victories before beating Michael Cuddon 3–1 in the final.
That is one of the more impressive complete sets of numbers I’ve seen in these daily reports.
Ellie Harwood wins the Pegasus Ladies Round Robin
There were two tournaments at Pegasus 68 Club in Taunton, including another women’s event for the database.
Ellie Harwood won the Ladies Round Robin, beating Shelley Cotterell 3–1 in the final.
Cotterell recorded the tournament’s highest average at 72.73, while Harwood reached 71.57 and finished with six victories.
The Pegasus Under-65 event was won by Peter Taswell, who came through a 4–3 final against Ryan Greenslade. Greenslade recorded the highest average at 79.11, with Brooklyn Anthony reaching 78.05.
Steve Boundy takes Saturday night title
Another result worth picking out came from the Saturday Night Money In Money Out Round Robin.
Steve Boundy took the title with a 4–1 final victory over Leon Taylor, finishing the tournament with seven wins.
The highest average belonged to Ashton Brown at 88.41, while Louis Dance hit 86.89 and Boundy reached 82.17.
More big Vault 19 performances
There were plenty more strong numbers among the Vault 19 events.
At Inn On The Green in Shrewsbury, Sam Morris took the title against Jake B-Smith. Jamie Chaplin produced a huge 107.05, while Morris himself hit 96.97.
Ashley Coleman was particularly consistent in Peterborough, winning the Vault with seven victories while recording 100.20, 96.97 and 93.94 among the leading averages.
At Worthies Sports and Social Club in Winchester, Jamie Kelling beat Henry Povey 3–1 in the final and produced a 94.60 average.
WADC titles for Millie Jolley and Kelly Stevens
And, as part of the continuing Q4QS coverage of the women’s game, I’m including the WADC events in these daily roundups rather than allowing them to disappear among the larger number of open events.
Millie Jolley won the WADC Vault at Fordham RBL, beating Amanda Harwood 3–1 in the final. Harwood recorded the highest average at 62.56.
At The Castle & Falcon in Newark, Kelly Stevens took the second WADC title, defeating Sienna Beck 3–0. Stevens also produced the tournament’s highest average of 68.32.
Friday’s standout averages
At the very top of Friday’s numbers were Kyle Ison and Roger Crook at 115.62, followed by Jamie Chaplin’s 107.05 and Kevin Leadenham’s 103.66.
Shaun Vernall and Ashley Coleman both broke the three-figure barrier with 100.20, while Archie Self, Marc Grace and Sam Morris were among those reaching 96.97.
For my own South and South West coverage, though, Vernall’s Champion of Champions victory at Evesham and Harwood’s win at Pegasus 68 are two of the results that particularly catch my eye.
Another 47 tournaments are now in Q4QS, feeding more results into the growing player records, venue data, rankings, form, head-to-heads and tournament histories.
