2008 Liverpool Open
Marcus Wrinch vs Irving Czechowicz After this round, the semi final saw Ann v Irving and Jimmi v Pat; and with Ann and Jimmi victorious, the finalists were known. British Open Champion, Ann, showed her class and became 13th Liverpool Open Champion.
Jimmi Wong & Ann Pocknell
In the consolation final, Mick Vacery beat Lee Wood, the Last Chance was won by John Wright beating Rachel Rhodes and Jeff Barber beat Peter Chan to win the ‘1- pointer’.
The whole weekend went very smoothly and was played in a great atmosphere. Our club would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who took part and helped to make the weekend a success. I would also like to thank those people who emailed me with some very kind comments soon after the event. We look forward to seeing you all next year. One sour note from the weekend was the ‘very vocal’ negative comments of one particular player (for the second year) that I personally found rude and completely uncalled for. After talking to two respected players, their opinion was that perhaps the player was ignorant rather than intentionally rude. However, now that some of these comments have appeared in print, maybe it would be better if this player doesn’t attend next year, as they clearly don’t appreciate the time and effort put in by everyone at our club.
