The DBSL would like to once again congratulate Ivor Fitzpatrick, of Pioneers Blue, on winning the fifth DBSL series handicap event, held in the Roadstone Snooker Club.
Ivor got off to good start beating Stephen Byrne Senior 2-0, in his last 16 match, and beating Dehna Bennett 2-0, in his Quarter Final match.
In the semi final he took on Dave Goddard of Roadstone C and also won the match with a convincing 2-0.
The final was a repeat of the third event this season, with Tony O’Connor of Glenalbyn Blue, taking on Ivor once again. And just as the last final dictated, this one also went to a 1-1 decider with Tony ahead by 55 points before Ivor made a sensational 88 total clearance to take the frame and match, beating Tony 2-1.
Tony had a good run again to the final, beating Pat Smullen 2-1 in his last 16 match and Niall Lawless 2-1 in his quarter final match. He then went on to beat Peter Conroy 2-1 in the semi final.
Ivor also had the highest break of the tournament with an 88 in the Final.
DBSL would also like to thank Tournament Director Stephen Merrigan and the Roadstone Snooker Club as always for their fine hospitality throughout the day.
