A Loyal few started block play on newly set courts, supplied (like last year) on a rock hard freshly mown sun-parched surface cut to 4mm...Fast, very fast.
The original schedule was discarded, after discussion with the players and the decision made to resolve matters within a single day - to avoid the forecasted 'Extreme Heat' event and the UK's declared first 'Red National Heat Emergency'.

And so to the play in the baking 27^oC heat, Single all-play-all block to sort out full seeding order for KO title race.
Semi-finals were Bo3, but both only needed first two games to allow progression.
However the final & fight for the other two Ascot point places both required all three games allowed to resolve.

Callum Johnson improved on last year's 3^rd spot to get his hands on the 'David Hopkins' Bon Bon dish.
Final Ascot finishing order; Johnson, Rigge, Libby Dixon from Ted Flexman
