| Event 4 Results – 4th December 2019 |
| Highlight of the Event 4 was a closing 300 game (first of the 2019/20 season) from Alan McDonnell to post a season high qualifying score of 1258 (251 Avg) and lead the Scratch section qualifiers. In the 1st Semi-final Alan was unable to maintain his striking form and went down to Paul Chandler by 237 to 194. Anthony Byrne who had shot a a 297 in qualifying couldn’t shake off a persistent Karl Dryer who closed out the 2nd Semi-Final with a 215 to Anthony’s 203. In the Final the momentum shifted to Karl who had a comfortable win by 215 to Paul’s 176. Qualifying in the Handicap section was very tight with only 34 pins between the top 4 headed by Karl Doherty on 1224 (incl. Hcp). Both Semi-final matches went down to wire with Karl on 213 losing out by 5 pins to Thomas Galvin on 218 and Paddy Dunne getting the better of Ross Kearney by 196 to Ross’s 193. The Final was a case of who could one too many openers for Paddy going down with a 190 to Thomas’s 209. Congratulations to the winners Karl Dryer (Scratch Division) and Thomas Galvin (Handicap Division) and all the finalists.
